Now that FoxyProxy is installed, more time can be spent finding bugs and not messing with settings.ĭon't Miss: Attack Web Applications with Burp Suite & SQL Injection We also covered some configuration issues, including setting the Certificate Authority and getting Burp to work with TLS. We installed and configured a browser add-on called FoxyProxy that allowed us to turn a proxy, like Burp Suite, on and off with a single click. We learned about proxy switchers and what the advantages of using them are.

When we are done, or if we want to disable the proxy temporarily, click the FoxyProxy icon again, and select "Turn Off FoxyProxy (Use Firefox Setting)" to return to the default settings for Firefox. You can do so by using the Ctrl Shift p shortcut, clicking the "Open menu" button in the toolbar then "Add-ons," or hitting "Tools" in the menu bar followed by "Add-ons."

Also in the Audit item panel, there is a status in bottom left saying: "Running (5 requests in progress, 0 requests queued)". The Audit items panels shows three items in status "Scanning" (still running Active phase 1), but I see no new requests since at least one hour.

Here is the behavior I can observe when a scan is staled because of this bug: It should be noted that I disabled HTTP Headers insertion point types, but that's a different and minor issue even if it would give me a workaround for this bug. The request times out because the server does not answer to invalid host header (he just drops the connection). Here is an example of request that times out:
