* core: database: make UUID searching case-insensitive 4c4d8a5e848c ("Implement search for reference placeholder based on fields other than ID") changed the semantics of searching-by-reference in KeePassXC. Unforuntately it contained a bug where it implicitly became case-sensitive to UUIDs, which broke existing databases that used references (especially since the default reference format uses a different case to the UUID used while searching). The tests didn't catch this because ->toHex() preserves the case that it was provided, they have been updated to check that UUIDs are case insensitive. * cli: show: resolve references in output Previously, `keepassxc-cli show` would not resolve references. This would make it quite hard to script around its output (since there's not interface to resolve references manually either). Fix this by using resolveMultiplePlaceholders as with all other users of ->password() and related entry fields. Fixes: keepassxreboot/keepassxc#1260 * tests: entry: add tests for ref-cloned entries This ensures that the most "intuitive" current usage of references (through the clone feature of the GUI) remains self-consistent and always produces the correct results. In addition, explicitly test that case insensitivity works as expected. These should avoid similar regressions in reference handling in the future. * http: resolve references in AccessControlDialog The access control dialog previously would not show the "real" username or "real" title when asking for permission to give access to entries. Fix this by resolving it, as we do in many other places. Fixes: keepassxreboot/keepassxc#1269 Signed-off-by: Aleksa Sarai <cyphar@cyphar.com>

Contributing
We are always looking for suggestions how to improve our application. If you find any bugs or have an idea for a new feature, please let us know by opening a report in our issue tracker on GitHub or join us on IRC on freenode channels #keepassxc or #keepassxc-dev.
You can of course also directly contribute your own code. We are happy to accept your pull requests.
Please read the CONTRIBUTING document for further information.
Note about KeePassHTTP
The KeePassHTTP protocol is not a highly secure protocol. It has a certain flaw which could allow an attacker to decrypt your passwords should they manage to impersonate the web browser extension from a remote address.
To minimize the risk, KeePassXC strictly limits communication between itself and the browser plugin to your local computer (localhost). This makes your passwords quite safe, but as with all open source software, use it at your own risk!
