We want to check out your BChecks ...
Summary: PortSwigger announced that scripted scan checks, called BChecks, are fully available with the 2023.6 release of Burp Suite Professional, and it is running a competition for users to submit their own. The competition opens Monday 3 July, pull requests will be reviewed on Monday 17 July, and the ten BChecks with the most upvotes will be shortlisted, with the creators winning Burp Suite swag and the final winner receiving an interview with a member of the Burp Suite development team.
Key Takeaway: Custom scan checks put vulnerability detection logic in the hands of individual testers, so the quality of what your scanner looks for depends on who writes the checks and how they are reviewed - here, the ten shortlisted entries are judged by community upvotes rather than any stated validation standard.
