Overview

burpsuite-project-file-parser is a Burp Suite extension to parse project files from the command line and output the results as JSON. It uses the Montoya Extender API so it should be cleanly compatible with most versions of Burp. Given a project file this can:

  • Print all Audit Items
  • Print all requests/responses from the proxy history
  • Print all requests/responses from the site map
  • Given a regex search the response headers or response bodies from the proxy history and site map

8 Bug Hunting Exampes with burpsuite-project-parser

Installation

  1. Compile the code as described in Build Information
  2. Install the extension in Burp
  3. Make sure to set the Output and Errors to system console

Set console output

  1. Close Burp Suite and follow examples below to parse the project file.

Example Usage

Notes:

  • Flags can be combined. For example, print audit items and site map; auditItems siteMap; check options below for more information
  • [PATH_TO burpsuite_pro.jar] is required; my path is: ~/BurpSuitePro/burpsuite_pro.jar if you need an example.
  • [PATH TO PROJECT FILE] requires a project file and it's recommended to give the full path to the project file
  • You may need --add-opens=java.desktop/javax.swing=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED depending on your version of Java

siteMap and proxyHistory

The siteMap and proxyHistory flags also support sub-components to speed up parsing. They are:

  • request.headers
  • request.body
  • response.headers
  • response.body

So, for example, to print out only the request body and headers from proxyHistory you would use:

java -jar -Djava.awt.headless=true [PATH_TO burpsuite_pro.jar] --project-file=[PATH TO PROJECT FILE] \
  proxyHistory.request.headers, proxyHistory.request.body

This massively speeds up parsing as the response bodies (which can be quite large) are ignored.

Print Audit items

Use the auditItems flag, for example:

java -jar -Djava.awt.headless=true [PATH_TO burpsuite_pro.jar] --project-file=[PATH TO PROJECT FILE] \
  auditItems 

Print site map and proxy history

Combine the siteMap and proxyHistory flags to dump out all requests/responses from the site map and proxy history:

java -jar -Djava.awt.headless=true [PATH_TO burpsuite_pro.jar] --project-file=[PATH TO PROJECT FILE] \
    siteMap proxyHistory 

Search Response Headers using Regex

Use the responseHeader=regex flag. For example to search for any nginx or Servlet in response header:

java -jar -Djava.awt.headless=true [PATH_TO burpsuite_pro.jar] --project-file=[PATH TO PROJECT FILE] \
    responseHeader='.*(Servlet|nginx).*'
...
{"url":"https://example.com/something.css","header":"x-powered-by: Servlet/3.0"}
{"url":"https://spocs.getpocket.com:443/spocs","header":"Server: nginx"}
...

Search Response Body using Regex

Note, searching through a response body is memory expensive. It is recommended to store requests/responses and search that.

Use the responseBody=regex flag. For example to search for <form elements in response bodies:

java -jar -Djava.awt.headless=true [PATH_TO burpsuite_pro.jar] --project-file=[PATH TO PROJECT FILE] \
    responseBody='.*<form.*'

If you want to clean up the results to something more manageable (rather than the entire response), YMMV with a second grep pattern for the 80 characters around the match:

java -jar -Djava.awt.headless=true [PATH_TO burpsuite_pro.jar] --project-file=[PATH TO PROJECT FILE] \
  responseBody='.*<form.*'| grep -o -P -- "url\":.{0,100}|.{0,80}<form.{0,80}"

Suggestions

  • Use a custom User Options file (Burp > User options > Save user options) from Burp Suite with only this extension enabled. This can speed up Burp Suite loading speed because only one extension is loaded. Include the --user-config-file flag:
java -jar -Djava.awt.headless=true [PATH_TO burpsuite_pro.jar] --project-file=[PATH TO PROJECT FILE] --user-config-file=[PATH TO CONFIG FILE]
  • Set the max amount of memory used by burp with -Xmx flag:
java -jar -Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx2G [PATH_TO burpsuite_pro.jar] --project-file=[PATH TO PROJECT FILE] 

Build Information

Option 1:

Run gradle fatJar from the root directory. This expects you have gradle and all dependencies installed.

Option 2:

Build the jar from the Dockerfile.

From the root directory of the project run:

mkdir build
docker build -t burpsuite-project-file-parser .
docker run --name burpsuite-project-file-parser -v [ADD THE FULLPATH TO YOUR CWD]/build:/tmp burpsuite-project-file-parser

The jar file should now be in the build directory of the project.
