Experiment 5

The document discusses using Burp proxy to test web applications by intercepting traffic between a browser and app, analyzing it with Burp tools, and identifying vulnerabilities through fuzzing, scanning, and modifying requests. Burp proxy allows identifying issues like SQL injection, replaying traffic to reproduce bugs, and mapping an app's architecture and vulnerabilities.

Experiment 5

Aim: Use Burp proxy to test web applications.

Theory:
Here are the steps on how to use Burp proxy to test web applications:
1. Install Burp Suite. You can download it from the Burp Suite website.
2. Configure Burp proxy. In Burp Suite, go to Proxy > Options. In the Proxy Listeners tab,
enter the IP address and port of your computer. Make sure that the Intercept checkbox is
checked.
3. Configure your web browser to use Burp proxy. In your web browser, go
to Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings. In the Proxy server section,
enter the IP address and port of your computer. Click OK.
4. Browse to the web application you want to test. Burp Suite will intercept all traffic between
your web browser and the web application.
5. Use Burp tools to analyze the traffic. Burp Suite has a variety of tools that you can use to
analyze the traffic, such as the Repeater, the Intruder, and the Scanner.

Here are some specific things you can do with Burp proxy to test web applications:
• Identify vulnerabilities: Burp Suite can help you identify a variety of vulnerabilities in web
applications, such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and insecure file permissions.
• Fuzz the application: You can use Burp Suite to fuzz the application, which means sending
it invalid or unexpected input. This can help you identify vulnerabilities that would not be
found by manual testing.
• Intercept requests and responses: Burp Suite allows you to intercept requests and
responses between your web browser and the web application. This can be useful for
debugging or for modifying requests and responses.
• Replay requests: Burp Suite allows you to replay requests and responses. This can be useful
for reproducing bugs or for testing the application's behavior under different circumstances.

Here are some more things you can do with Burp proxy to test web applications:
• Use the Scanner: The Scanner is a Burp tool that can automatically scan web applications
for vulnerabilities. The Scanner can be used to scan a wide range of vulnerabilities,
including SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and insecure file permissions.
• Use the Repeater: The Repeater is a Burp tool that allows you to send a request to the web
application and view the response. This can be useful for debugging or for modifying
requests and responses.
• Use the Intruder: The Intruder is a Burp tool that allows you to send a series of requests to
the web application and vary the input in each request. This can be useful for fuzzing the
application or for testing the application's behavior under different circumstances.
• Use the Proxy history: The Proxy history is a Burp tool that allows you to view a history
of all requests and responses that have been intercepted by Burp. This can be useful for
debugging or for tracking down specific requests and responses.
• Use the Target site map: The Target site map is a Burp tool that allows you to view a map
of all the pages and resources that are accessible from the web application. This can be
useful for understanding the application's architecture and for identifying potential
vulnerabilities.
Output:

Conclusion: Burp proxy is a powerful tool that can be used to test web applications for
vulnerabilities. Burp proxy can be used to intercept, inspect, and modify traffic that passes
between a web browser and a web application. Burp proxy has a variety of tools that can be
used to analyze traffic, identify vulnerabilities, and fuzz the application. Burp proxy is a
valuable tool for penetration testers and web developers who want to ensure the security of
their web applications.
