Bug when adding or updating a PARAM_COOKIE parameter

Nicolas | Last updated: Apr 07, 2016 11:51PM UTC

Hello, I'm working on super basic extension which allows to edit the value of a specific cookie in its own Repeater display tab. But when I call updateParameter(..., buildParameter(..., PARAM_COOKIE)), the cookie line is incorrectly modified. Raw tab, before edition: Cookie: authtoken=aaaaaaaaaaaaaa Switch to the extension-provided tab, edit the cookie value to "xxx" and switch back to the raw tab: Cookie: ; authtoken=xxx The extra semi-colon will impact the cookie name (now "; authtoken"). The same behavior happens with removeParameter() + addParameter().

Were you able to reproduce this behavior?

Apologies for the delay - been busy with version 1.7! Yes, we've reproduced this problem and will look into getting it fixed shortly.

Any plan to fix the 1.6 branch?

We don't back-port fixes to old versions of Burp, sorry. All new features/fixes will be applied in the latest released version.
