A flag to Prevent polling collaborator through socks 5 proxy

Breno | Last updated: May 16, 2023 10:28PM UTC

Sometimes, there is a need to set up a SOCKS proxy to an internal host. However, in certain network proxy settings, Oastify and custom collaborator servers may be blocked. In such cases, it would be ideal to have a flag that allows for using the proxy for all HTTP connections while still being able to poll the collaborator using my own network. This flag would address this particular issue and cater to this specific use case.

Thanks for your message. Can you tell us more about your setup in this use case? Can the application you are testing see the public Collaborator server, but the machine where you have Burp installed (when using the SOCKS proxy) cannot see the public Collaborator server? How often do you come across this scenario?
