Creating new issues via the Add & Track Custom Issues extension

Though Burp Suite provides a listing of many security vulnerabilities commonly found in web applications, occasionally you will identify an issue and need to create a custom scan finding. This can be done using the Add & Track Custom Issues extension.

Note

This plugin requires the Burp Suite Professional edition.

Getting ready

Using the OWASP Mutillidae II application, we will add the Add & Track Custom Issues extension, create steps revealing a finding, and then use the extension to create a custom issue.

How to do it...

  1. Switch to the Burp Suite Extension tab. Go to the BApp Store subtab and find the plugin labeled Add & Track Custom Issues. Click the Install button:
