MCP Server

Summary: PortSwigger released a Burp Suite extension, version 1.4.0, that exposes Burp functionality through a Model Context Protocol server so AI assistants can perform security testing tasks, analyze traffic, and interact with Burp tools programmatically. The extension page notes that any data sent to external tools through it is subject to those tools' data processing policies.

What's compelling: Connecting an AI client to a Burp MCP server means captured traffic and testing data leave your environment under another vendor's data processing policies, a boundary the extension itself flags but does not control.
