Selected the [Botan crypto library](https://github.com/randombit/botan) due to its feature list, maintainer support, availability across all deployment platforms, and ease of use. Also evaluated Crypto++ as a viable candidate, but the additional features of Botan (PKCS#11, TPM, etc) won out.
The random number generator received a backend upgrade. Botan prefers hardware-based RNG's and will provide one if available. This is transparent to KeePassXC and a significant improvement over gcrypt.
Replaced Argon2 library with built-in Botan implementation that supports i, d, and id. This requires Botan 2.11.0 or higher. Also simplified the parameter test across KDF's.
Aligned SymmetricCipher parameters with available modes. All encrypt and decrypt operations are done in-place instead of returning new objects. This allows use of secure vectors in the future with no additional overhead.
Took this opportunity to decouple KeeShare from SSH Agent. Removed leftover code from OpenSSHKey and consolidated the SSH Agent code into the same directory. Removed bcrypt and blowfish inserts since they are provided by Botan.
Additionally simplified KeeShare settings interface by removing raw certificate byte data from the user interface. KeeShare will be further refactored in a future PR.
NOTE: This PR breaks backwards compatibility with KeeShare certificates due to different RSA key storage with Botan. As a result, new "own" certificates will need to be generated and trust re-established.
Removed YKChallengeResponseKeyCLI in favor of just using the original implementation with signal/slots.
Removed TestRandom stub since it was just faking random numbers and not actually using the backend. TestRandomGenerator now uses the actual RNG.
Greatly simplified Secret Service plugin's use of crypto functions with Botan.
Since Homebrew moved all its stuff to /opt/homebrew, our hard-coded
install_name_tool patch magic stopped working. This patch uses
macdeployqt for all executables to prevent this kind of behaviour.
Fixes#6042
* Removed option to attach KeePassXC to the browser extension. Users must use the proxy application to communicate with KeePassXC.
* Significantly streamlined proxy code. Used same implementation of stdin/stdout interface across all platforms.
* Moved browser service entry point to BrowserService class instead of NativeMessagingHost. BrowserService now coordinates the communication to/from clients.
* Moved settings page definition out of MainWindow
* Decoupled BrowserService from DatabaseTabWidget
* Reduced complexity of various functions and cleaned the ABI (public vs private).
* Eliminated BrowserClients class, moved functionality into the BrowserService
* Renamed HostInstaller to NativeMessageInstaller and renamed NativeMessageHost to BrowserHost.
* Recognize XDG_CONFIG_HOME when installing native message file on Linux. Fix#4121 and fix#4123.
To reduce residual fragments of secret data in memory after
deallocation, this patch replaces the global delete operator with a
version that zeros out previously allocated memory. It makes use of
the new C++14 sized deallocation, but provides an unsized fallback
with platform-specific size deductions.
This change is only a minor mitigation and cannot protect against
buffer reallocations by the operating system or non-C++ libraries.
Thus, we still cannot guarantee all memory to be wiped after free.
As a further improvement, this patch uses libgcrypt and libsodium
to write long-lived master key component hashes into a secure
memory area and wipe it afterwards.
The patch also fixes compiler flags not being set properly on macOS.
* Fixes including keepassxc-cli when building KeePassXC dmg on Mac.
resolves#1697
* Fix Qt search path and Properties display on macOS
* Simplify packaging POST_BUILD fixups
* Various fixes to get cli to run on macos
* Correct cli tests on macOS
* Several macOS related GUI test fixes
