Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Bulwarden

No. Before you pair it with a hub it contacts nothing at all, and it never discovers or chooses a hub by itself. After pairing, data moves only for the things listed under Privacy below — health checks, backups, malware scan findings — and only to the hub you paired with.

No, provided you set a passphrase. The archive is encrypted on this server with a key derived from your passphrase, and only the ciphertext is uploaded. The passphrase is never transmitted, so a hub holds bytes it cannot decrypt. The same property is why nobody can recover a lost passphrase for you.

The site stops answering its hub, which the hub will notice and report as the agent going unreachable. Deleting the plugin removes its settings, its audit-log table and its working directories (see uninstall.php); backups already stored on a hub are unaffected.

The plugin runs per site. A network-wide database upgrade is reported but not performed — core's own network upgrade screen walks every site in the network, and that is where it belongs.

The file-integrity check compares every core and WordPress.org-hosted file against the checksums WordPress.org published for that exact release. A caching or optimisation plugin that rewrites a stylesheet produces the same mismatch a backdoor does, which is why "this file no longer matches what was published" is reported as a fact rather than a verdict, and why non-executable files are warnings rather than critical findings. Your hub can show you the actual diff.

Nothing on page loads: there is no front-end code path. Backups and malware scans are real work and run in the background across WordPress cron ticks, to a time budget, so they do not block visitors. Health checks are answered on demand

PHP 7.4 or newer and WordPress 6.0 or newer. Backups additionally need the sodium extension (encryption) and either zlib or the zip extension (archiving); the Settings screen tells you if either is missing.
