Bean Stack - Stack-trace Fingerprinter
Summary: BeanStack is a Burp Suite extension, version 0.7.0, that identifies Java frameworks and libraries by analyzing stack traces found in HTTP responses. It sends those stack traces to the BeanStack API at beanstack.io for fingerprinting and reports identified versions and associated CVEs in the Burp Suite dashboard.
Key Takeaway: The extension's own listing warns that it sends potentially private stack traces to a third-party service, so the tool that surfaces Java CVE exposure also moves your application's internal detail off-network.
