Professional / Community 2025.9.5
Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite Professional/Community 2025.9.5 on 13 October 2025, adding support for custom Java scan checks written through the Montoya API alongside the existing BChecks language. The release also redesigns the scan launcher's Scan configuration tab into a single unified panel and disables the Browser cross-site scripting filter disabled built-in scan check by default.
Bottom line: Custom Java scan checks give teams access to most Burp functionality through the Montoya API, which means scan logic can now be tailored to your own applications rather than limited to built-in checks. The default disabling of the browser XSS filter check also changes what your existing scans will report.
