Brotli compression is not supported

Sweeney | Last updated: Sep 15, 2021 05:17PM UTC

Hello, The latest version of Burp doesn't support requests (actually the responses) that use Brotli compression. The responses come in a compressed form, hence all audit checks will fail to find any meaningful data in the response. The request (or the response) in question is the one that contains the following: "Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br" or "Content-Encoding: br"

Hi Sweeney, We have had other users ask about supporting Brotli so we do already have a feature request for this in our development system. I will add your interest to this existing request so that we can accurately monitor the demand for it. We will also update this thread if we have any further news to share about it.

Lovely! Thank you, Ben. Looking forward to it.
