Thank you for your speedy response and, oh, my mistake reporting to upstream without checking the latest version, sorry. I mentioned this as a small motivation in an already existing bug report regarding version bumping in Debian testing: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1067146#10.

Thanks for the bug report, but this issue was fixed in kpcli-4.0: hightowe@eden ~/src/perl/kpcli-code/releases $ diff 3.x/kpcli-3.8.pl 4.x/kpcli-4.0.pl | grep -A 3 6832c8527 6832c8527 < if (! (-f -e $kpxc_exe)) { return 0; } --- > if (! (defined($kpxc_exe) && -f -e $kpxc_exe)) { return 0; } It would be nice if Debian would advance the kpcli version. I'm not sure why it has not upgraded in so long...

Ah, I missed that, thanks. Perhaps it can be a dedicated thing then so that the perf is not such a factor for the more common find command? The idea is for a "I've had a compromise of a password with contents 'warglebargle', please tell me what services I need to reset passwords at" use case.

The feature that you requested is almost fully implemented today: KeePass CLI (kpcli-4.1.3) v4.1.3 is ready for operation. Type 'help' for a description of available commands. Type 'help ' for details on individual commands. kpcli-4.1.3:/> help find find: Finds entries Searches for entries with the given search term in their title and places matches into "/_found/". Add -a to search data fields beyond just the title: * title, username, comment, url, tags Use -expired to find expired entries....

Without ls, show does not shows keys

Lester Hightower posted a comment on ticket #58

Lester Hightower — Mon, 15 Sep 2025 14:45:01 -0000

kpcli has always had this behavior. It is an intentional design decision based upon the fact that the entry numbers are only associated with an ls. The show command also supports titles, and so there is no need (and it's somewhat nonsensical) to try to show via a number when no ls was ever performed. Moreover, the show command will show entries from the prior ls that was performed with no regard for where the user's cwd currently is. Again, this was an intentional design decision.

I fixed the KDBXv3 protected strings display bug reported here. It is part of this commit: https://sourceforge.net/p/kpcli/code/66/tree//trunk/kpcli-DEVELOPMENT.pl?diff=6570cda74363ae34c51814f1:65 Note that the bug.kdbx file that you sent did not have the otp string protected in the entry, but the attached file does, in one of the two entries, as shown in the screenshot.

I managed to install File::KDBX and opened a KDBX 4.1 file that was created by KeePassVault, and the otp entry was redacted indeed. I opened my KDBX 3.0 file again, it still wasn't redacted. The stats says that File::KeePass was used for that file.

Because I am unable to replicate this problem, would you please create a small kdbx file that has one or more entries within it that exhibits the concerning behavior and upload it to a reply here? Thanks.

I just tried to protect the otp field of an entry using KeepassDroid, and open the file using kpcli 4.1.2, it still displayed the otp string without red on red

Ahmed El-Mahmoudy — Sat, 04 Jan 2025 15:43:21 -0000

For a couple of entries, I added the otp string using an old version of kpcli (3.1 to 3.7, I don't recall). One entry was created by kpcli 4.1.2, I opened the database using KeepassDroid, and it showed that the otp string wasn't protected for all those entries, even the one created by kpcli 4.1.2

The screenshot from my prior reply was from a 3.x KDBX file and an entry that had its OTP added by KeePassXC. If that behaves the way that you expect, then I am not sure what issue you are running into. What version of kpcli are you using (run the vers command)? What software added the OTP strings to the kdbx file's entries? I understand the other request that you described (you've made two requests in one ticket). I am presently focused on understanding the OTP issue, which seems to not behave for...

Ahmed El-Mahmoudy — Sat, 04 Jan 2025 12:35:41 -0000

That's not what happens with me. I am using a 3.x KDBX file, and I use the otp string (instead of 2FA-TOTP field in Notes) to put the otpauth:// url, and it is displayed without being redacted as in your screenshot. Also, I need to add some sensitive info in string fields, such as recovery codes, yet there is no way to protect such info using kpcli

It seems that I am not understanding something in this. Unless -f is given to the show command, the otp string is hidden as red on red text, just like the password is, as seen in the attached image.

I was astonished that kpcli shows the otp strings (which contains secret info.) even though I didn't use -f flag for show command. When I opened the keepass database using another app (KeePassDroid), it showed that the otp string was indeed protected.
