Why do you assume every KeePass user is storing their passwords on a server somewhere? I would never send my password file over a network, and I don't consider USB storage "sharing."

The password file itself is an encrypted DB. Unless you choose a weak password for that, it's pretty secure.

The more tightly you control copies of your password DB file, the less vulnerable you are if somebody "purposefully injected a vulnerability" in the software as parent suggests, that's the only reason I brought it up.
