    over 100 generic vulnerabilities
  • Burp's cutting-edge web application crawler accurately maps content and functionality, automatically handling sessions, state changes, volatile content, and application logins.
    Read More
  • Burp Scanner includes a full JavaScript analysis engine using a combination of static (SAST) and dynamic (DAST) techniques for detection of security vulnerabilities within client-side JavaScript, such as DOM-based cross-site scripting.
  • Burp has pioneered the use of highly innovative out-of-band techniques (OAST) to augment the conventional scanning model. The Burp Collaborator technology allows Burp to detect server-side vulnerabilities that are completely invisible in the application's external behavior, and even to report vulnerabilities that are triggered asynchronously after scanning has completed.

  • Burp's scanning logic is continually updated with enhancements to ensure it can find the latest vulnerabilities and new edge cases of existing vulnerabilities. In recent years, Burp has been the first scanner to detect novel vulnerabilities pioneered by the Burp research team, including template injection and web cache poisoning.continually updated
  • All reported vulnerabilities contain detailed custom advisories. These include a full description of the issue, and step-by-step remediation advice. Advisory wording is dynamically generated for each individual issue, with any special features or remediation points accurately described.

Advanced manual tools

  • Use Burp project files to save your work incrementally in real-time, and pick up seamlessly where you left off.
  • Use the configuration library to quickly launch targeted scans with different settings.
  • View real-time feedback of all discovered vulnerabilities on Burp's central dashboard.real time feedback
  • Place manual insertion points at arbitrary locations within requests, to inform the Scanner about non-standard inputs and data formats.
  • Use live scanning as you browse to fully control what actions are carried out for what requests.
  • Burp can optionally report all reflected and stored inputs, even where no vulnerability has been confirmed, to facilitate manual testing for issues like cross-site scripting.
  • You can export beautifully formatted HTML reports of discovered vulnerabilities.html reports
  • The CSRF PoC Generator function can be used to generate a proof-of-concept cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attack for a given request.cross site request forgery
  • The Content Discovery function can be used to discover hidden content and functionality that is not linked from visible content that you can browse to.
  • The Target Analyzer function can be used to analyze a target web application and tell you how many static and dynamic URLs it contains, and how many parameters each URL takes.static and dynamic urls
  • Burp Intruder is an advanced tool for automating custom attacks against applications. It can be used for numerous purposes to improve the speed and accuracy of manual testing.
  • Intruder captures detailed attack results, with all relevant information about each request and response clearly presented in table form. Captured data includes the payload values and positions, HTTP status code, response timers, cookies, number of redirections, and the results of any configured grep or data extraction settings.detailed attack results

Essential manual tools

  • Burp Proxy allows manual testers to intercept all requests and responses between the browser and the target application, even when HTTPS is being used.
  • You can view, edit or drop individual messages to manipulate the server-side or client-side components of the application.view edit or drop
  • The Proxy history records full details of all requests and responses passing through the Proxy.
  • You can annotate individual items with comments and colored highlights, letting you mark interesting items for manual follow-up later.
  • Burp Proxy can perform various automatic modification of responses to facilitate testing. For example, you can unhide hidden form fields, enable disabled form fields, and remove JavaScript form validation.
  • You can use match and replace rules to automatically apply custom modifications to requests and responses passing through the Proxy. You can create rules that operate on message headers and body, request parameters, or the URL file path.match and replace
  • Burp helps eliminate browser security warnings that can occur when intercepting HTTPS connections. On installation, Burp generates a unique CA certificate that you can install in your browser. Host certificates are then generated for each domain that you visit, signed by the trusted CA certificate.
  • Burp supports invisible proxying for non-proxy-aware clients, enabling the testing of non-standard user agents such as thick client applications and some mobile applications.

  • You can configure fine-grained interception rules that control precisely which messages are intercepted, letting you focus on the most interesting interactions.
  • The target site map shows all of the content that has been discovered in sites being tested. Content is presented in a tree view that corresponds to the sites' URL structure. Selecting branches or nodes within the tree shows a listing of individual items, with full details including requests and responses where available.target site map
  • All requests and responses are displayed in a feature-rich HTTP message editor. This provides numerous views into the underlying message to assist in analyzing and modifying its contents.
  • Individual requests and responses can be easily sent between Burp tools to support all kinds of manual testing workflows.
  • The Repeater tool lets you manually edit and reissue individual requests, with a full history of requests and responses.
