However I’m having trouble finding the master_password argument it’s expecting.
There’s an .xpi file for Yoroi in $USER\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ri7f1l0s.default-release\extensions
It’s an archive that contains (what looks like) static assets and javascript files for the extension. I don’t see anything that obviously looks like data storage. Am I on the right track?
Spending password is not stored anywhere. It just becomes a part of an algorithm to decrypt/ encrypt your secret key.
Example: Let say your encryption algorithms is “x + y = z” (z is your secret key)
If x is your spending password, then what’s on your computer looks like " <user input> +y=z"
Entering spending password just completes the formula, doesn’t access any data storage to confirm if that is true.
Wrong password = wrong decryption , therefore no transactions are signed
Correct password = correct decryption, therefore transaction is signed and authorized.
Hey, could you find the master_password for the firefox extension? I’m having a similar issue and can’t find the hash. I tried looking in the ‘Storage’ tab in Firefox developer tools, but couldn’t find anything there. Any help would be highly appreciated.
