Header Issue Reporter
Summary: A Burp Suite extension called Header Issue Reporter reads the entire Burp Proxy History and extracts all headers from requests and responses, showing which headers exist for every host and endpoint. It flags header-related issues the user selects via checkboxes - missing security headers, cookies missing security flags, and verbose or dangerous headers - and automatically generates a Microsoft Word report with findings, remediation details, and the hosts and endpoints where each header appears or is missing.
Bottom line: The tool's output is a Word document listing every host and endpoint where a security header is absent, which turns a sprawling proxy history into a concrete inventory of gaps a security leader can hand to remediation owners.
