Professional / Community 2026.1

Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite Professional and Community 2026.1 on 16 January 2026, replacing the Learn tab with a Discover tab and adding command palette navigation for jumping to specific locations in most tables. The release also adds Burp Scanner filtering of false positives caused by web application firewalls delaying suspicious payloads, SPNEGO encoding for NTLM tokens, Java 25.0.1, and Chromium 143.0.7499.193 on Windows and Mac.
Key Takeaway: The scanner change targets a specific blind spot: WAF-induced delays that mask genuine time-based SQL injection, so teams relying on Burp for DAST should expect different results on WAF-fronted applications after this upgrade.
