Plugin check fails

[strarsis]

Currently the update check in KeePass fails for KeeAgent.

Similar issue: #353

Not sure I understand the problem. The current version is 0.13.8 which is what https://updates.lechnology.com/KeePassPlugins currently shows.

I think he meant this:

I just checked the request with fiddler. KeePass gets a 403 response when visiting https://updates.lechnology.com/KeePassPlugins
But I can visit the URL with my browser without any problems.

Interesting... apparently yesterday my web server decided to start denying requests that don't have a user agent set.

Random hint: That is something that the default OWASP Rules include/recommend (as if faking a real user agent wasn't super easy). Wouldn't be surprising if updating software would cause this

After updating to lastest KeePass version: 2.57.1, I don't have the issue anymore

[schossel]

Still there

Same here. Update check fails for KeeAgent Plugin since a couple of days/weeks

[faustogut]

Same here. KeePass 2.57.1 does not fix the problem.

Same here

Any news on a new release, which sets an agent, which the website will allow?

This is something that would have to be fixed in KeePass itself. Plugins only provide a URL to check and don't have any other control over the process.

Can't you change the web server to respond without the header? It had been working fine for a long time.

It is a managed server, so I don't have control over the security settings.

I opened a ticket with KeePass here.

Dominik Reichl fixed it in this build. I think that will come in the next release. Works now for me:
