  <summary>Security update for keepass</summary>
  <description>This update for keepass fixes the following issues:

- Update to 2.54

* Security:

+ Improved process memory protection of secure edit controls (CVE-2023-32784, boo#1211397).

* New Features:

+ Triggers, global URL overrides, password generator profiles and a few more settings are now stored in the enforced configuration file.
    + Added dialog 'Enforce Options (All Users)' (menu 'Tools' &#8594; 'Advanced Tools' &#8594; 'Enforce Options'), which facilitates storing certain options in the enforced configuration file.
    + In report dialogs, passwords (and other sensitive data) are now hidden using asterisks by default (if hiding is activated in the main window); the hiding can be toggled using the new '***' button in the toolbar.
    + The 'Print' command in most report dialogs now requires the 'Print' application policy flag, and the master key must be entered if the 'Print - No Key Repeat' application policy flag is deactivated.
    + The 'Export' command in most report dialogs now requires the 'Export' application policy flag, and the master key must be entered.
    + Single line edit dialogs now support hiding the value using asterisks.
    + Commands that require elevation now have a shield icon like on Windows.
    + TrlUtil: added 'Move Selected Unused Text to Dialog Control' command.

* Improvements:

* The content mode of the configuration elements '/Configuration/Application/TriggerSystem', '/Configuration/Integration/UrlSchemeOverrides' and '/Configuration/PasswordGenerator/UserProfiles' is now 'Replace' by default.
    * The built-in override for the 'ssh' URI scheme is now deactivated by default (it can be activated in the 'URL Overrides' dialog).
    * When opening the password generator dialog without a derived profile, the '(Automatically generated passwords for new entries)' profile is now selected by default, if profiles are enabled (otherwise the default profile is used).
    * The clipboard workarounds are now disabled by default (they are not needed anymore on most systems).
    * Improved clipboard clearing.
    * Improved starting of an elevated process.

* Bugfixes:

+ In report dialogs, the 'Print' and 'Export' commands now always use the actual data (in previous versions, asterisks were printed/exported when the application policy flag 'Unhide Passwords' was turned off).
