140.82.121.5

Well, apparently, this is an A record for api.github.com. This name resolves to a different IP around the globe. See https://www.whatsmydns.net/#A/api.github.com

The IP is detected as “clean” on VirusTotal: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/140.82.121.5/detection , although apparently (probably not surprising as it is github) is also a favorite address for everything including malware.

Maybe you can ask in the keepassxc discussion forum on github.

VirusTotal doesn’t indicate keepassxc.exe 2.7.7 contacts this address. I’d be careful. Check the binaries’ signatures. Try a full install to see if that behaves differently.

The canon is used to induce a radical evasive movement. Probably need lots of airbags. Looks awesome, though; would have loved it as a toy car.

Beam me up, Scotty!

a gnat! o, my.
