Brief Summary

You are able to create an entry using KeepassXC that seems to conflict with internal built in 'attributes', but only some of them. For example, given all of the properties for a default item:

> keepassxc-cli.exe show --all --show-protected "testing.kdbx" "test2"
Enter password to unlock testing.kdbx:

Title: test2
UserName:
Password:
URL:
Notes:
Uuid: {1dd63753-06db-4c48-bea5-a6cd64a4dae7}
Tags:

I am not able to create an entry under Advanced > Additional attributes for Title, UserName, Password, URL and Notes, they all just revert back New Attribute

but i am able to create attributes for Uuid and Tags

and when i view this in keepassxc-cli.exe, it seems to get confused and duplicates the entries with not the attributes I set

keepassxc-cli.exe show --all --show-protected "testing.kdbx" "testing123"
Enter password to unlock testing.kdbx:

Title: testing123
UserName:
Password:
URL:
Notes:
Uuid: {664b992c-4556-4e98-b132-ebcf37130212}
Tags: asdf
Tags: asdf
Uuid: {664b992c-4556-4e98-b132-ebcf37130212}

Steps to Reproduce

create an entry

double click, go to advanced

add an attribute called Uuid, type in anything
add an attribute called Tags, type in anything

run keepass-cli.exe and search for your entry you passed in, see duplicates, and not the data you inserted.

Expected Versus Actual Behavior

should either block the addition of additional attributes that are named that, OR if they are somehow present, maybe prefix them with a special name?

Good find!

This is not a serious bug, this is just a display issue with the CLI. UUID is NOT a protected attribute since its not an attribute at all. We already protect against duplicating default/protected attributes.
