Working with Burp AT's results - Port Swigger
Summary: PortSwigger's Burp AT logs each vulnerability it finds as a Burp issue, reporting findings in the task as it works, on the scan task's Issues tab, and against the linked node in Target > Site map. Burp AT sets severity and confidence itself, includes the requests and responses used as evidence with the specific bytes highlighted, and can lower severity or delete its own issues as it works.
Key Takeaway: Burp AT has no prior knowledge of how your application is meant to work, so it may report intended behavior - such as a search feature - as a vulnerability, and PortSwigger recommends confirming severity and confidence before acting on any finding.
