Burp Scan)The number of request sent

NaokiMaki | Last updated: Aug 17, 2022 04:59AM UTC

The number of requests sent is slightly different even though I scan the URL with multiple times with exactly same URL and configuration in Burp Scan. Is this possible??

Hi Are you using one of the preset scan modes, like "Lightweight", "Fast", "Balanced", "Deep", or a different scan configuration? There will be a slight variation in the number of requests sent while scanning, as the Scanner may need to repeat some requests. For example, if you encounter a network error then Burp will retry that request up to a specific number of times.
