Burp Suite Guide:

  • Burp proxy: used to intercept traffic between the browser and target application -> similar to a man-in-the-middle attack.
  • Burp Sitemap and Site proxy: shows sitemap and site scope -> lets you choose the scope of security testing
    • Displays various sections of a particular domain (ex. Google)
    • shows how to execute search
  • Burp Spider: used to get a complete list of URLs and parameters of each site. Looks through each page manually and finds the links within the testing scope.
    • Using spider: Proxy and interceptors should be off. -> Manually visiting more sites will give spider a larger coverage area.

Questions:

  1. Is Burpsuite similar to anything you have used before?
  2. What can be potential issues using this software?
