Convenient timing!

I've moved my credentials over from pass to Vaultwarden about a month ago (after discovering the pass Android app was abandoned and pulled off app stores), and spent the last two weeks since discovering Pocket ID migrating a few self-hosted services to OIDC.

I love this product have used it for a long time now but more recently started getting worried about security. I hope the maintainers are doing their due diligence around securing their docker hub account (many of us run VW in docker) and are careful about libraries the project depends on. Some questionable coding practices were made that I'm not sure I agree with (calling a 3rd party sites in some scenarios). As mor…

Security audits have been made by German BSI for vaultwarden (and other free software):

How secure is Vaultwarden?

It's as secure as others promise it to be but actual security is in your own hands. I self-host vaultwarden but I keep it behind a VPN.

The logic is simple, Bitwarden is not there to detect intrusion attempts and safeguard your server so you gotta do it yourself, that's why its free.

Pocket ID[1] is what I use, and I cannot recommend it enough. It's an incredible project. [1] https://pocket-id.org

Love pocket-id. Do you use oauth2-proxy with it? How did you set up oauth2-proxy to work with multiple apps?

I've dabbled in oauth2-proxy but I'm not running it currently. I recall my goto was launching one instance per remote i want to target.

Yeah that's hard to scale when you have lots of services. For now, I am running multiple instances of oauth2-proxy instances and assigning user groups in pocket-id. How do you deal with apps not having native OIDC support?

Most of the comments seem to confirm (all but one at time of writing) that this feature is more intended for corporate/business environments. Does anyone know if Vaultwarden has commercial users? By no means am I arguing against the inclusion of this feature, I'm just curious. Everywhere I've worked that was big enough to use SSO was also wary of selfhosting FOSS tools. I should clarify I don't consider myself workin…

I’ve used it at a previous job. SMB, ca. 200(?) employees.

I used to use oauth2-proxy with PocketID, but migrated to caddy-security for stuff that doesn't directly support OIDC as part of a general move to Caddy. It's nice not needing the sidecar container, though the docs for caddy-security are a bit confusing and I still find Caddy's whole approach to plugins a bit... odd. It does give you quite a lot of flexibility once you figure it out, and I think it was worthwhile after the initial learning period.

Yes, it does.

Same here! - 350-400 employees, but the main requirement was that it could be accessed with no internet. Came from Keepass, love it. SSO just makes it better.
