New Burp Suite Extensibility
Summary: PortSwigger announced Burp Suite Pro v1.5.01, which adds a new native framework for extensibility in Burp. The existing API, built up gradually without an overall plan, is described as fairly limited, and several third-party frameworks had been layered over it to address its shortcomings.
What's compelling: The stated goal is that tasks like writing a Scanner check, creating a session handling action, or adding an HTTP message analyzer should take less time than working around the obstacle manually - with Python scripting support aimed at users who have little programming experience.
