Here is KeePassXC's response: https://keepassxc.org/blog/2023-06-20-cve-202335866

Basically some random guy with weird misconceptions about security decided this was an issue, it's obviously not. Honestly concerning that he was able to easily get a CVE for this and even get articles about it published on some websites.
