Hi Uzair, It is likely that there could be rate-limiting on the server, temporary network errors, or a WAF blocking requests after a certain point. Are requests consistently blocked after a specific number each time? Have you tried looking at the traffic in Flow or Logger++ to see if there is a pattern in the requests that are timing out? Does your issue persist in another version of Burp?

I further investigate it but not limited to my android app it occurs for any website that I want to active scan and it occurs in active phases of the active scan.

Hi Uzair, Thanks for that information. If possible, can you try scanning in the latest version? Or another version of Burp? Does the issue persist?
