Amidst all of these pwnings, we still don't have a standard way to update our passwords from our password managers automatically.
I feel like we missed the chance to have a standard http resource for this stuff.
It's a shame, IMO, that the Basic Auth never got updated or superceded by something with a better UX and with modern security.

The domain search feature on haveibeenpwned is/was free. I registered my domain on haveibeenpwned back in 2017 and I got two emails about breaches, one in 2020 and another in 2022. I did not pay.
It tells you that an address in your domain has been included in a breach. It doesn't tell you which address was included. That's what the OP and I are opining about.
I respect Troy Hunt's work. I searched for my email address on https://haveibeenpwned.com/ , and my email was in the latest breach data set. But the site does not give me any way to take action. haveibeenpwned knows what passwords were breached, the people who breached the data knows what passwords were breached, but there does not seem to be any way for _me_, the person affected, to know what password were breached.…

def email_compromised(email):
return TrueThe downside to having many vanity urls and giving out a unique email address to each website you visit is that you cannot use haveibeenpwned without paying (despite being a single human). I have no idea how many email addresses I've given out over the years, probably hundreds across at least 6 or 7 domains, and they want to charge me a monthly fee to see which of those have been pwned. I understand they gotta make a…

My password manager (Bitwarden) does that automatically.
I use Bitwarden with a Vaultwarden server so I have some familiarity. Bitwarden checks new passwords against HiBP. I'm not aware of functionality where it can retroactively check old email addresses or passwords to see if they're included in a breach.
My data was exposed in one of the Facebook leaks and it turned out I had an old email on my Facebook account with a domain I had since let lapse and abandoned. Someone else registered the domain and tried to take over my Facebook account by sending a password reset request using it. Luckily I had 2FA and I guess Facebook's fraud alerts picked it up so It wasn't successful. I guess what I want to say is beware that ev…
