How can I review all HTTP headers for requests and responses

Daw | Last updated: Aug 05, 2016 12:04PM UTC

Hi, How can I review all HTTP headers for requests and responses from history tab? I need to review them and to analyze but I didn't find a way of doing this. I have tried to save state/project and to analyze the file but it seems to be a proprietary format. Please instruct me how to dump all headers from all requests to the file. Many thanks, Daw

Hi Daw Thanks for your message. Burp Project and State files can only be loaded using Burp Suite. You can review these files in Burp Suite. Alternatively, you can use the Save Item function from the context menu. Select the items you wish to save in the HTTP history tab, then right click to bring up the context menu and click Save item(s). Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Thank you, it helped I dumped request headers by doing the following after saved all history entries to "requests" file: $ cat requests | grep 'request base64' | sed 's/.*CDATA\[\([^]]*\)\].*/\1/' | while read line; do echo $line | base64 -d; done > request_headers
