by Firefox user 16994290, a year agoIf your browser is sandboxed with Snap or Flatpak, this extension does not work. It's not fixable as the required integration breaks the sandbox and so won't be allowed. If you have a browser installed on your host computer (i.e. native, not sandboxed) then there is no problem with this extension. But since Firefox is now ONLY supplied as Flatpak or Snaps on Ubuntu, this effectively locks out all Linux users from using KeepassXC.
> his has nothing to do with the extension itself, but Snap/Flatpak implementation of the browser itself.
But it has everything to do with the extension. It is designed in a way that is simply incompatible with the security model of a sandboxed browser. Nothing about the sandbox is "broken", the kind of code execution required by the extension and the server is what a sandbox is designed to prevent. This is exactly what a malicious extension would do to break out of the sandbox. The team should be working on this, or else users will just abandon the project. I'm certainly not going to try to convince Ubuntu that Snap is broken on your behalf, I'm just going to install something else that works.

posted a year agoThis has nothing to do with the extension itself, but Snap/Flatpak implementation of the browser itself. Ubuntu already added support for Native Messaging with Snap Firefox. If it's broken, Ubuntu's Snap team should be contacted. Sadly we cannot do anything about it.

- Rated 2 out of 5by bumpsy, 4 days agorecently it just always fails to connect to the database. Didn't have problems for months but now it just loads indefinitely until I reinstall the extention. It's just faster to copy and paste manually...

- Rated 5 out of 5by WadamT, 2 months agoSimple and nice extension for a good password manager. Connecting to KeepassXC database is easy. Passkey integration is awesome.
- Rated 5 out of 5by zycron, 2 months agoFonctionne parfaitement pour moi sous W11/FF137.0.2, mais impossible de le mettre en oeuvre sous Plucky Puffin Kubuntu 25-04.
Je ne sais pas dans quel camp est la balle, mais ce serait bien que conjointement, la communauté Ubuntu, Mozzila et le développeur se donnent la main pour résoudre ce problème, qui semble connu...
Sans quoi, merci pour tout... - Rated 5 out of 5by HUMORCE, 2 months ago
