Auto-Highlighter

What is it?

• Auto-Highlighter is a Burp Extension that helps you track your progress on an assessment
• How it works:
  • You right-click a request in "Proxy History" and apply a highlight using the extension's context menu
  • All requests "matching" the highlighted one (past and future) will be highlighted

How to use it?

• Ensure Burp Suite is configured to use Jython
• Ensure Burp Suite loaded exceptions_fix.py is loaded from a Modules directory you define (Project Options)

Features

• Quickly identify requests you've previously triaged -- On to the next one!
• Two modes of operation (Available in context menus after right-clicking a request in Proxy History)
  • Tag-Based higlight mode - Select tag from the extension context menu (Configure tag color in extension settings tab)
  • Explicit highlight mode - Select a color from the extension context menu
• Determines unique requests based off the HTTP Method, URL, and parameters
  • Automatically normalizes URLs with route parameters such as IDs or GUIDs
• Configure custom highlight colors for tag-based higlighting

Note

• The extension will not work if your application generates dynamic parameter names (e.g. - ctl100)
