Gin and Juice Shop: put your scanner to the test
Summary: PortSwigger researcher Carlos Montoya built Gin and Juice Shop, a deliberately vulnerable web application with single-use CSRF tokens and heavy JavaScript that is intended to give scanners a realistic target. The site contains XSS, SQLi, and external service interactions testable through OAST testing, and PortSwigger invites users to point Burp Scanner at https://ginandjuice.shop/.
Bottom line: A scanner that only handles simple forms will miss what this site hides behind single-use CSRF tokens and JavaScript, so the exercise exposes whether your scanning coverage holds up against a target built to resemble modern applications.
