Just did the update of vaultwarden. Had to log out and log back again in bitwarden on my browser. On the phone it seems to just have worked. Thank you for the PSA :)

Thanks so much for the PSA. I'm currently on vacation without any chance to update Vaultwarden but need access to it via the Bitwarden client. Just disabled the auto update in time. I wish I could vote this twice.

I found this comment on what happened by dani-garcia, one of the main devs:

The short version is that around 8-ish years ago, Bitwarden changed the way the vault items were structured, and Vaultwarden added some backwards compatibility fields to ensure both old and new versions of the clients worked.

These backwards compatibility fields were supposed to be a temporary measure, but for at least the next three years the clients still required them, until we eventually forgot to keep track of them. At some point between 2021 and today, the clients stopped requiring these backwards compatibility fields, but Vaultwarden was still sending them.

This wasn't a problem until Bitwarden decided to use the backwards compatibility fields in a completely different way, which caused the clients to crash.

Do not update any bitwarden client until you can update vaultwarden

I've been leery about bitwarden client updates since the posts awhile back about the new(ish) PE/VC c suite person.

I'm not saying those are related in any way other than the fact that I intentionally haven't updated my clients to the latest yet and for once it worked out for me :)

I do love docker + a front end like dockge.

Saw this post, switched to my browser, clicked three buttons; vaultwarden is now updated. Didn't even move my lazy ass off the couch. (I'm on my phone)

Thanks for the PSA! :)

Noticed that as well with our selfhosted instance at work and wondered what the deal was.
Guess I now know why.

Wow! Thanks for the PSA!

Thanks for the PSA, I got hit before any of this was live

Ps. I notice your msn avatar. I'm busy with https://retromessenger.com/. Coming soon for free!

Thank you for the PSA good friend!

Thanks, probably saved me a lot of headache on my laptop browsers. Fortunately, I don't use the official Bitwarden client on android partly because this seems to keep happening.

Was wondering why it suddenly was stuck loading, thanks!

The packaged Debian version did not get updated yet.

Thank you for this. I thought I was going insane. Time to turn auto updates off
