Configure burp for running EXE

Garg, | Last updated: Jul 12, 2021 12:40PM UTC

In our web application from one of the screen we schedule one task which calls one EXE which is placed on the server where the application is hosted, on Burp suite only the request of web pages are appearing but we are not able to see the request generated by the EXE. Please let us know how to configure to intercept the request generated by the EXE file.

Hi Muskan, Just to clarify, is the .exe file making HTTP/S requests? If so, and the application is simply proxy unaware then you might be able to configure use of an invisible proxy to capture the traffic. There are details on how to do this on the following page: https://portswigger.net/burp/documentation/desktop/tools/proxy/options/invisible
