Hello,

first many thanks for sharing your work. I tried it with a known password in the list and got "No working password found". Ubuntu 20.04 5.4.0-65-generic KeePass 2.44 Package: rustc Version: 1.47.0+dfsg1+llvm-1ubuntu1~20.04.1 findkeepassword 1.0.0

Thank you

Same here on Windows, i tried it and it doesn't works :(

The tool seems really nice but says no working password (i used it agaisnt a 2.53 Keepass DB)

If your database is not in the kdbx4 format, it will not work. Are you sure your password file is using the kdbx4 format?

Actually, my database was in kdbx4 format, I guess I did something else wrong.

When I executed the code, it tried every possibility at lightning speed (while my database had 5s iteration). Maybe i've just done something wrong on my side but I guess i'm not the first and wouldn't be the last.

Maybe a kind of error handling would be a great improvement to this tool ?

@Dafium Could you try again with the current sources? I have switched kdbx libraries, and added Argon2id support to kdbx-rs.

I did try again and unfortunately it directly crashed for some reasons image

It seems that rockyou.txt contains kind of "extended ASCII characters" which doesn't seems to be supported. I used it again and put my true password on purpose in a hashcat wordlist with UTF-8 chars only and it worked perfectly fine !

Thanks for the quick fix ! ;)
