DISPUTED KeePassXC 2.7.7 allows an attacker (who has the privileges
of the victim) to recover cleartext credentials via a memory dump. NOTE:
the vendor disputes this because memory-management constraints make this
unavoidable in the current design and other realistic designs.

Notes

Author Note
Priority reason: Mitigated by default ptrace restrictions in Ubuntu
alexmurray This vulnerability requires the attacker to dump the memory of the keepassxc process - in Ubuntu the default ptrace restrictions ensure that in general this cannot be done by other processes even belonging to the same user which lowers the severity of this vulnerability
