Professional / Community 2024.8

Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite Professional and Community 2024.8 on 30 August 2024, adding the ability to manually create issues for vulnerabilities found during penetration testing and a built-in test function for match and replace rules. The release also adds a Proxy > Match and replace tab, lets users save requests derived from an OpenAPI definition (versions 2.0 and 3.0.x) to the site map, and updates Java from 21.0.3 to 21.0.4.

What's compelling: Manual issue creation means findings a tester identifies by hand can now sit in the same final report as scanner output, so the completeness of that report depends on the tester rather than the tool alone.
