Modify a response status code

Simon | Last updated: May 17, 2017 04:04PM UTC

Hi, Is it possible within a burp extension to change a responses status code? Or if not, is it possible within a burp extension to intercept a request (not a response) and generate an entire fake response instead of sending response on to its original destination? many thanks, simon hurley

1. Yes, you can update any part of the response, including the status code. 2. It isn't currently possible to do this in a graceful manner. A hack is to redirect the target host of a request, point it at a local web server, and either serve the fake response from the server or intercept the response in your extension and change it there.
