Professional / Community 2024.8.2

Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite Professional and Community 2024.8.2 on 1 October 2024, adding the ability to manually create issues for vulnerabilities found during penetration testing, a built-in test function for match and replace rules, a new Proxy > Match and replace tab, and the option to save requests derived from an OpenAPI definition to the site map. The release also fixes bugs in Logger search, the Organizer table, the Issues table on secondary monitors, the recorded login editor, Repeater's Send hotkey, and multi-position Intruder attacks, and updates Java from 21.0.3 to 21.0.4.

Key Takeaway: Manual issue creation lets testers put every vulnerability they find into the final report, so findings that previously lived outside the tool now land in the document leadership reads.
