BurpSmartBuster Description
BurpSmartBuster is a Burp Suite plugin designed for content discovery during web application security testing. The plugin enhances traditional directory and file brute forcing by analyzing current requests received by Burp Suite to make intelligent decisions about what to search for. The tool performs several types of content discovery: - Searches for directories within the current URL path structure - Identifies files in discovered directories - Tests file extension variations by replacing and adding extensions to existing files - Applies suffix and prefix modifications to current files BurpSmartBuster integrates directly with Burp Suite's workflow, using information from intercepted requests to guide its discovery process. This approach aims to reduce noise and improve the relevance of discovered content compared to traditional brute force methods. The plugin includes logging and verbose output options for detailed analysis of discovery results. Future development plans include technological environment detection (PHP, IIS, Apache, SharePoint), community-driven data integration, and enhanced spidering integration for more targeted brute forcing.
