Professional / Community 2024.6

Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite Professional 2024.6 on 27 June 2024, adding active and passive scan checks that detect OpenAPI definitions during scans and while browsing, using a list of common OpenAPI definition file names and locations. The release also adds support for scanning OpenAPI v2.0 definitions, splits Inspector and message editor into separate Side panel and Message editor pages, and includes site map filter performance improvements and bug fixes.
What's compelling: The new checks hunt for publicly available OpenAPI definitions by common file names and locations, surfacing API attack surface that scanning previously would not have flagged.
