• Support for Gradle8.5
• Support for Junit5
• Merged an old PR to fix an error during parameter decoding. Thanks @ningod
• Adjusted startup development scripts and README

We've just released a new version of this project. Thanks to @AlessandroCotto @zam0x1ma @MohmedH @v-p-b

v2.2.0 brings the following updates:

• Java 17 compatibility to run Burp Professional with the burp-rest-api jar. This release was compiled with Java 11.
• New endpoint to get and update cookies from the cookies jar 🍪
• New endpoint for partial history 📜
• Optional API key authentication to protect /burp API calls 🔐
• Add support for filtering report issues by severity/confidence/paths
• Minor bugs fixes (small, but yet annoying issues have been fixed)

We released v2.1.0 with full support for Java > v1.8, bug fixes and some small API improvements:

• Support for the latest version of Java (JDK 14)
• BurpService: pass-through arguments to Burp Suite
• Workaround for Burp's getPercentageComplete() deprecation
• Use utf-8 as default message encoding
• Include insertion points in active scan REST Api

Burp-Rest-Api v2 is now working on Linux too!

We improved the class loading to support Linux.

Burp-Rest-Api is now independent from the Burp Suite Professional JAR file, hence we will be creating releases for stable versions.

Burp-Rest-Api v2.0.0 introduces support for all Burp Suite Extensions, and much more...
