This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. Standard UNIX password manager Password management is one of those computing problems you probably don't think about often, because modern computing usually has an obvious default solution built-in. A website prompts you for a password, and your browser auto-fills it in for you. Problem solved. However, not all browsers make it very easy to get to your passwords store, which makes it complex to migrate passwords to a new system without also migrating the rest of your user profile, or to share certain passwords between different users. There are several good open source options that offer alternatives to the obvious defaults, but as a user of Linux and UNIX, I love a minimal and stable solution when one is available. The pass command is a password manager that uses GPG encryption to keep your passwords safe, and it features several system integrations so you can use it seamlessly with your web browser of choice. Install pass The pass command is provided by the PasswordStore project. You can install it from your software repository or ports collection. For example, on Fedora: $ sudo dnf install pass On Debian and similar: $ sudo apt install pass Because the word pass is common, the name of the package may vary, depending on your distribution and operating system. For example, pass is available on Slackware and FreeBSD as password-store. The pass command is open source, so the source code is available at git.zx2c4.com/password-store. Create a GPG key First, you must have a GPG key to use for encryption. You can use a key you already have, or create a new one just for your password store. To create a GPG key, use the gpg command along with the --gen-key option (if you already have a key you want to use for your password store, you can skip this step): $ gpg --gen-key Answer the prompts to generate a key. When prompted to provide values for Real name, Email, and Comment, you must provide a response for each one, even though GPG allows you to leave them empty. In my experience, pass fails to initialize when one of those values is empty. For example, here are my responses for purposes of this article: Real name: Tux Email: tux@example.com Comment: My first key This information is combined, in a different order, to create a unique GPG ID. You can see your GPG key ID at any time: $ gpg --list-secret-keys | grep uid uid: Tux (My first key) tux@example.com Other than that, it's safe to accept the default and recommended options for each prompt. In the end, you have a GPG key to serve as the master key for your password store. You must keep this key safe. Back it up, keep a copy of your GPG keyring on a secure device. Should you lose this key, you lose access to your password store. Initialize a password store Next, you must initialize a password store on your system. When you do, you create a hidden directory where your passwords are stored, and you define which GPG key to use to encrypt passwords. To initialize a password store, use the pass init command along with your unique GPG key ID. Using my example key: $ pass init "Tux (My first key) " You can define more than one GPG key to use with your password store, should you intend to share passwords with another user or on another system using a different GPG key. Add and edit passwords To add a password to your password store, use the pass insert command followed by the URL (or any string) you want pass to keep. $ pass insert example.org Enter the password at the prompt, and then again to confirm. Most websites require more than just a password, and so pass can manage additional data, like username, email, and any other field. To add extra data to a password file, use pass edit followed by the URL or string you saved the password as: $ pass edit example.org The first line of a password file must be the password itself. After that first line, however, you can add any additional data you want, in the format of the field name followed by a colon and then the value. For example, to save tux as the value of the username field on a website: myFakePassword123 username: tux Some websites use an email address instead of a username: myFakePassword123 email: tux@example.com A password file can contain any data you want, so you can also add important notes or one-time recovery codes, and anything else you might find useful: myFake;_;Password123 email: tux@example.com recovery email: tux@example.org recovery code: 03a5-1992-ee12-238c note: This is your personal account, use company SSO at work List passwords To see all passwords in your password store: $ pass list Password Store ├── example.com ├── example.org You can also search your password store: $ pass find bandcamp Search Terms: bandcamp └── www.bandcamp.com Integrating your password store Your password store is perfectly usable from a terminal, but that's not the only way to use it. Using extensions, you can use pass as your web browser's password manager. There are several different applications that provide a bridge between pass and your browser. Most are listed in the CompatibleClients section of passwordstore.org. I use PassFF, which provides a Firefox extension. For browsers based on Chromium, you can use Browserpass with the Browserpass extension. In both cases, the browser extension requires a "host application", or a background bridge service to allow your browser to access the encrypted data in your password store. For PassFF, download the install script: $ wget https://codeberg.org/PassFF/passff-host/releases/download/latest/install_host_app.sh Review the script to confirm that it's just installing the host application, and then run it: $ bash ./install_host_app.sh firefox Python 3 executable located at /usr/bin/python3 Pass executable located at /usr/bin/pass Installing Firefox host config Native messaging host for Firefox has been installed to /home/tux/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts. Install the browser extension, and then restart your browser. When you navigate to a URL with an file in your password store, a pass icon appears in the relevant fields. Click the icon to complete the form. Alternately, a pass icon appears in your browser's extension tray, providing a menu for direct interaction with many pass functions (such as copying data directly to your system clipboard, or auto-filling only a specific field, and so on.) Password management like UNIX The pass command is extensible, and there are some great add-ons for it. Here are some of my favourites: pass-otp: Add one-time password (OTP) functionality. pass-update: Add an easy workflow for updating passwords that you frequently change. pass-import: Import passwords from chrome, 1password, bitwarden, apple-keychain, gnome-keyring, keepass, lastpass, and many more (including pass itself, in the event you want to migrate a password store). The pass command and the password store system is a comfortably UNIX-like password management solution. It stores your passwords as text files in a format that doesn't even require you to have pass installed for access. As long as you have your GPG key, you can access and use the data in your password store. You own your data not only in the sense that it's local, but you have ownership of how you interact with it. You can sync your password stores between different machines using rsync or syncthing, or even backup the store to cloud storage. It's encrypted, and only you have the key.Provide feedback on this episode.

Thank you to the folks at Sustain (https://sustainoss.org/) for providing the hosting account for CHAOSSCast! CHAOSScast – Episode 109 In this episode of CHAOSScast, host Georg Link is joined by Cali Dolfi, Senior Data Scientist at Red Hat, and Brittany Istenes, FINOS Ambassador. The discussion delves into the importance of measuring open source community health and the role of Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) in ensuring software security and compliance. They talk about the rising threats in open source software, the need for standardizing SBOMs, and how organizations can leverage these tools to proactively manage risks and project health. Also, they touch on practical steps being taken at Red Hat and other organizations to address these challenges. Hit download now to hear more! [00:00:21] Our guests introduce themselves and their backgrounds. [00:01:55] Georg explains the rise of malicious packages (700%) and the risks of neglected open source components. [00:04:36] What is a SBOM? Brittany explains SBOMs as a list of all software components and libraries in each application and automation and tooling adoption is discussed. [00:06:08] Cali outlines the lack of consensus on SBOM fields and formats and advocates for including upstream repo links to assess project health. Brittany mentions companies being cautious about publicizing SBOMs due to IP concerns. [00:09:12] Georg gives a historical overview about SBOMs began as tools for license compliance and how SBOMs now cover more including cybersecurity, post U.S. Executive Order 14028 (May 2021). [00:15:51] Georg shares three pillars of SBOM strategy: License compliance, Security, and Project Health and how CHAOSS Metrics can be combined with SBOMs to move from reactive to proactive strategies. [00:16:59] Brittany emphasizes risk analysis and good design from project inception and proactive open source strategies save effort later. [00:18:43] Cali talks about using project health metrics and advocates for tracking maintainer activity, patch frequency, and project responsiveness. [00:21:28] Brittany stresses internal engineering education on project health and risk and developer smush understand what makes a project “healthy.” [00:22:55] Georg talks about how open source has evolved and details using CHAOSS metrics for risk assessment and CI/CD integration. [00:27:36] Cali shares Red Hat's efforts to define what makes a project vulnerable and how it's focused on detecting and sunsetting unmaintained dependencies. [00:31:37] Brittany emphasizes risk from version mismatches and misinterpreted CVEs and mentions a CHAOSS doc to read, “Metrics for OSS Viability” by Gary White. [00:34:17] We end with Georg sharing some upcoming events: CHAOSScon North America, June 26 and Open Source Summit North America, June 23-25. Value Adds (Picks) of the week: [00:36:08] Georg's pick is building a platform for his dog to look out the window. [00:37:06] Brittany's pick is spending time with Georg and Cali. [00:38:12] Cali's pick is her great support system since having ACL surgery. *Panelist: * Georg Link Guests: Cali Dolfi Brittany Istenes Links: CHAOSS (https://chaoss.community/) CHAOSS Project X (https://twitter.com/chaossproj?lang=en) CHAOSScast Podcast (https://podcast.chaoss.community/) podcast@chaoss.community (mailto:podcast@chaoss.community) Georg Link Website (https://georg.link/) Britany Istenes LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/brittany-istenes-91b902152/) Brittany Istenes GitHub (https://github.com/BrittanyIstenes) Cali Dolfi LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/calidolfi/) State of the Software Supply Chain (Sonatype) (https://www.sonatype.com/state-of-the-software-supply-chain/introduction) CHAOSScast Podcast-Episode 103: GrimoireLab at FreeBSD (https://podcast.chaoss.community/103) CHAOSS Community: Metrics for OSS Viability by Gary White (https://chaoss.community/viability-metrics-what-its-made-of/) CHAOSScon North America 2025, Denver, CO, June 26 (https://chaoss.community/chaosscon-2025-na/) Open Source Summit North America, Denver CO, June 23-25 (https://events.linuxfoundation.org/open-source-summit-north-america/) Fintech Open Source (FINOS) (https://www.finos.org/) Cyber Resilience Act (European Commission) (https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/cyber-resilience-act) Rising Threat: Understanding Software Supply Chain Cyberattacks And Protecting Against Them(Forbes) (https://www.forbes.com/councils/forbestechcouncil/2024/02/06/rising-threat-understanding-software-supply-chain-cyberattacks-and-protecting-against-them/) Executive Order on Strengthening and Promoting Innovation in the Nation's Cybersecurity (The White House) (https://bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2025/01/16/executive-order-on-strengthening-and-promoting-innovation-in-the-nations-cybersecurity/) Types of Software Bill of Material (SBOM) Documents (https://www.cisa.gov/sites/default/files/2023-04/sbom-types-document-508c.pdf) OpenSSF Scorecard (https://openssf.org/projects/scorecard/) OSS Project Viability Starter (CHAOSS) (https://chaoss.community/kb/metrics-model-project-viability-starter/) Show Me What You Got: Turning SBOMs Into Actions- Georg Link & Brittany Istenes (https://lfms25.sched.com/event/1urWz) Special Guests: Brittany Istenes and Cali Dolfi.

Thank you to the folks at Sustain (https://sustainoss.org/) for providing the hosting account for CHAOSSCast! CHAOSScast – Episode 103 In this episode of CHAOSScast, host Alice Sowerby welcomes guests Miguel Ángel Fernández, Ed Maste, and Moin Rahman to talk about FreeBSD's Project adoption of GrimoireLab as part of work commissioned by the Sovereign Tech Agency (https://www.sovereign.tech/). They discuss the FreeBSD Foundation's need to understand their extensive bug backlog and how they leveraged GrimoireLab to gain insights and optimize bug management. The conversation also covers the challenges of deploying GrimoireLab on FreeBSD, resulting enhancements in the GrimoireLab metrics, and the overall benefits seen in managing the FreeBSD project. Press download to hear more! [00:00:45] The guests introduce themselves and share their backgrounds. [00:03:00] Alice explains the adoption of GrimoireLab by the FreeBSD project, facilitated by Bitergia who Miguel works for, to enhance project metrics and dashboarding capabilities. [00:04:02] Ed details FreeBSD's history, it integrated approach to software distribution, and its licensing benefits. [00:05:50] Miguel describes Bitergia's role in providing analytics for open source projects through GrimoireLab and how it integrates data from various development platforms. [00:07:38] Ed discusses the FreeBSD project's need for better tools to manage its large bug backlog, prompting the adoption of GrimoireLab. [00:10:57] Alice and Miguel discuss the translation of specific project needs into functional dashboards within GrimoireLab. [00:15:38] Ed highlights the utility of the Backlog Management Index (BMI) dashboard, which helps assess the effectiveness of efforts to manage and reduce the bug backlog. [00:18:20] Moin speaks on the practical use of GrimoireLab during bug busting sessions, which helped identify and close outdates or irrelevant bugs. [00:20:14] Moin explains the challenges and solutions of deploying GrimoireLab on FreeBSD, emphasizing the importance of utilizing FreeBSD's native capabilities over Linux-based solutions. [00:24:26] Miguel mentions new features added to GrimoireLab, inspired by their collaboration with the FreeBSD project, improving metrics for bug management. [00:28:05] Ed provides insights into the patterns of bug response times and highlights the need for proactive management of bugs that are unlikely to be addressed, and Miguel shares his positive thoughts on the community responding to the bugs. Value Adds (Picks) of the week: [00:32:10] Alice's pick is taking a walk in the Black Forest in Germany. [00:32:38] Ed's pick is going downhill skiing and taking a trip to a larger ski resort in Ontario. [00:33:21] Miguel's pick is starting to learn to play the piano a few months ago with an online course and how rewarding it's been. [00:34:17] Moin's pick is joining the FreeBSD Foundation and the strong sense of purpose it has given him.
