Professional / Community 2023.10.2

Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite Professional/Community 2023.10.2 on 14 September 2023, adding the ability to test BChecks from within the editor using pre-selected requests and responses as test cases, a blank BCheck template, and a notes feature for Repeater tabs. The release also added three new filter buttons to the Scanner's Issue Activity Dashboard, improved Crawl paths text using crawler-accessible alt text, and upgraded Burp's built-in browser to Chromium 117.0.5938.62 for Mac/Linux and 117.0.5938.63 for Windows, which contains several security fixes including one for a critical vulnerability.

Bottom line: The bundled Chromium update carries a fix for a critical vulnerability, so teams running older Burp builds are testing against a browser with a known critical flaw until they upgrade.
