Professional / Community 1.7.33
Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite Professional/Community 1.7.33 on 28 March 2018, improving project repair so uncorrupted data can be recovered even when key metadata near the start of a corrupted project file is lost. The release changes the project file format: it is backwards compatible with files from all prior versions, but files created in the new release cannot be opened in older versions of Burp.
Key Takeaway: The corruption case named in the source is a guest VM whose host OS terminates abnormally, so teams running Burp inside virtualized environments face both a recovery limit and a one-way file format change that locks older installs out of new project files.
