Console Password Manager 0.23 Beta

Console Password Manager is a free and open source ncurses based console tool to manage passwords and store them public key encrypted in a file - even for more than one person.
The encryption is handled via GnuPG so the programs data can be accessed via gpg as well, in case you want to have a look inside. The data is stored as as zlib compressed XML so it’s even possible to reuse the data for some other purpose.
The software uses CDK (ncurses) to handle the user interface, libxml2 to store the information, the zlib library to compress the data and the library GpgMe to encrypt and decrypt the data securely.

Main features:
- datafiles can be encrypted for more than one person (public key encryption)
- data files are always signed by the last person who saved it so forging data files is not possible
- encryption is handled by the GPGME library so it’s supposed to be very secure
- data inside the encryption is a gzipped XML file so almost nothing is known about the encrypted data
- the application memory is protected from paging; sensitive data does not get written to the swap space
- no core dumps are created in case the program crashes; no sensitive data ends up in the core file
- the application is protected from ptrace attacks so even the local root user can’t look into the process data
- the runtime environment is carefully checked
- datafiles are en- and decryptable directly by gpg and gzip
- data is stored XML formatted
- data is validated with an internal DTD to detect invalid or broken XML code
- backup files are created if possible
- it is possible to store several passwords per account
- it’s possible to handle several datafiles, each encrypted for different people
- check of password strength and warnings about weak passwords (via cracklib)
- user definable hierarchy with unlimited depth
- long comments for any node in the hierarchy
- password generator
- there is only one password visible at a time
- searchable database from the commandline
- regex patterns can be used for the search
- user definable searchpatterns (e.g. user@hostname)
- several hits can be displayed at once (e.g. several accounts per host)
- conversion scripts for Password Management System (pms), Password Safe and CSV files
