Retire.js

Summary: Retire.js is a Burp Suite extension, version 3.0.4 by Philippe Arteau, that integrates with the Retire.js repository to find vulnerable JavaScript libraries. It passively examines loaded JavaScript files and identifies vulnerable ones by signature type: URL, filename, file content, or specific hash.

Key Takeaway: The extension was last updated on 14 December 2021, and PortSwigger states it makes no warranty about the quality or usefulness of third-party extensions - so the vulnerability signatures your scanner relies on may lag behind the libraries your applications actually load.
