The only stand-alone password manager that I have reviewed
sufficiently to have an opinion about is KeePassX. KeePassX's
cryptography is only slightly worse than that in the Linux kernel and

I have not reported these issues to any bug tracker.
The copyright infringements in share/keepassx/icons/ are far more
problematic -- it is not currently legal to distribute the KeePassX
source tarball or Debian/Ubuntu binary packages.
