Dear Maintainer,

I added three new entries to the database and then exited
as normal. There was no indication of any issues until I
tried to re-open the database. I entered my pass phrase as
normal and it informed me that the auth had failed. I tried
several more times thinking I mistyped something. I then
selected the "view pass" button to verify that it was
correct, which it was, but it still failed.

I then pulled an old version of the database from backup and
opened it with no issue. I added and entry, saved and
exited, then attempted to re-open but it failed auth again.

I copied a BAD version of the database to a Windows machine
with the latest version of KeepPass installed. It also fails
to auth the pass phrase. From this I must assume that
something is corrupting the file when saving.

Hi,

From the links below it seems that the issue might have been related to python3-pykeepass and has been fixed in version 4.0.7.

If you can confirm, then this issue can be closed. Latest version of secrets in debian now can be used to test.

Secrets 9.6-1/unstable still fails the same way outlined previously
here. Reverting to the a backup of the .kdbx file allows auth to
complete successfully.
