I've installed it because it's mandatory to use the passbolt data (even if I need to use it only from the web page) and now that is installed as a plugin, my firefox has begun to slow down so much that it's impossible to ear music in youtube and many other actions are also slowed down.
I have to disable the passbolt each time I start firefox to be able to use correctly the browser and if I remove the plugin (as I've already done) I can't access anymore the web site that contains the passwords.
So I highly discourage this tool if you are not forced to use it by some reason, use keepass2 instead as I do !

Extension safety
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk
impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of
damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your
personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they
do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always
exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
