DAST 2026.10.3

Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite DAST 2026.10.3 on 29 October 2026, adding the ability to scan APIs from Burp XML and HAR files, where each request in the file becomes an endpoint that can be reviewed and enabled or disabled like Postman requests. The release also names each authentication scheme declared in OpenAPI, Postman, or GraphQL definitions - including unsupported ones such as Digest, NTLM, and AWS Signature Version 4 - and lets OAuth 2.0 authorization code and implicit flows and OpenID Connect take a bearer token for scanning.

Why it matters: The tool now lists authentication schemes it cannot yet scan, including NTLM and AWS Signature Version 4, so APIs behind those mechanisms remain outside the scan even as the interface presents them by name.
