Extension which scans a predined list of urls

Kayo | Last updated: Feb 09, 2015 11:21PM UTC

Is there a current extension which will take a predefined list of URL's and scan them? I was writing my own extension and I was able to use sendToSpider(url) method to add my URL to the spider but I wanted to know if there a way where instead of sending this URL to the burp spider I can directly send it to the scanner i.e. tell burp to do a scan on this URL.

Hi, I tried similar approaches. What I ended up doing was turning on BURP's live scan feature. This allows it to scan whatever webpage as I browse with a proxy enabled. The trick is you can run any other crawler in the background with that very same proxy. I ended up having to create my own crawler for the scans to be "automated" Another thing you can try is to save a predefined set of cURL requests in a batch file somewhere, run them with the same proxy. Burp will do a live scan on those requests.
