YAFD force quits Keepass when trying to fetch favicons.

See original GitHub issue

Hello, I’m facing a rather problematic issue:

Steps to reproduce:

If I activate the option to use both Automatic prefix URLs with http:// and Use title field if URL field is empty in the order below:

20181104144920-

20181104142648-

I then mark all items in a specific group (notice the visible columns):

20181104145054-d__passmap kdbx - keepass

and select the option to download:

20181104145327-

Result:

Keepass will suddenly behave as if the entire list is deleted, then the app quit unexpectedly. Luckily, I didn’t make any changes to the database during this run, but any unsaved changes is confirmed to be lost if these repro-steps are preformed on an unsaved db.

I’m using it with the following plugins on KeePass 2.40:

plugin Version
KeeChallenge 1.5.0.0
QuickConnectPlugin 0.4.4.0
ExeIconPicker 1.0.2.0
HIBPOflineCheck 1.3.1.0
KeeAnywhere 1.5.1.0
KeePassHttp 1.8.4.2
KeeTrayTOTP 0.9.5.0
PasswordChangeAssistant 1.1.0.0
QualityColumn 1.2.0.0
QuickConnectPlugin 0.4.4.0
YetAnother Favicon Downloader 1.2.0.0

@Swoy not sure if you get luck with the other plugins, but I did a small change that may help in cases like this.

Thanks for looking into this anyway!

KeePass itself already has a good drop in performance if you have too many entries, especially if you have the sort / grouping features enabled.

I haven’t experienced any performance issues what-so-ever, I do however get application hang errors when I try to import csv’s larger than 20MB (I haven’t tried 10MB etc.). But I digress;

HIBPOfflineCheck has an event that is triggered every time an entry is touched (updated). During my tests, he was primarily responsible for crashing the program while the list of icons was being updated.

It seems that HIBPOfflineCheck indeed causes havoc during your plugins update. I simply disabled it since I only use it once in a while. While KeeTrayTOTP is in development I suppose he will look into these issues on his side as well - considering how useful his plugin is to many people.
