Login to vault using passkeys

[netboy3]

Bitwarden has released Web v2024.1.0 with beta support for using passkeys to encrypt/login to the vault. Is this a client side only feature which we'll gain once web in Vaultwarden is upgraded to 2024.1.0, or does it require server side changes?

[BlackDex]

No it isn't. We need to make several changes to the server for this to be supported. But that will probably take a while.

Lets first release a next 1.30.x version before we do that.

When is it coming approximately?

[BlackDex]

No clue. We do not predict or forecast anything in regards to new features.
I would suggest to keep an eye out on PR's created to see if one is having this feature.

But, for that, i think we first need to update the webauthn crate and maybe address some other items in regards to to this.

Adding to that, the actual Bitwarden feature is currently still in beta, only supported on web vault, and requires PRF capable browsers. So even on the client side, this is currently a very limited feature and should probably not be a top priority for Vaultwarden.

Hey, just a friendly reminder.
This feature would really be appreciated :)

+1, I just deployed a cloud instance of Bitwarden at work and this feature is amazing. These modern authentication mechanisms have me spoiled!

Would love to see this get added to Vaultwarden. I realize it's still beta on Bitwarden but it's a step in the right direction without having to type in long master password! All of my keys are Yubico Series 5.
