Find GraphQL API vulnerabilities, with Burp Suite Professional

Summary: PortSwigger added GraphQL checks to Burp Scanner that automatically detect known and hidden GraphQL endpoints, flag when introspection or suggestions are enabled, and report endpoints that fail to validate content type. The scanner also reports when a request can be forged via GET or application/x-www-form-urlencoded POST, which the post ties to CSRF exposure when no token is implemented and SameSite protections can be bypassed or neutralized via the SameSite None flag.

Bottom line: A GraphQL endpoint deployed to production by accident, or one that skips content-type validation, is exactly the kind of asset an attacker finds before you do - and Burp now surfaces both without a tester trawling the site by hand.
