Hostname Resolution in Extender

toobz | Last updated: Feb 17, 2022 09:02PM UTC

Hey all, Quick question. I noticed in the Project Options tab, we have the ability to do Hostname resolution overrides. My question is, is similar functionality possible via the Burp Extender API? Use case is to be able to programmatically gather the IP of a specific host and map that to a particular IP. Doing so manually is not ideal so was curious if functionality exists as an extension.

Hi Toobz,

There is no specific method/interface to control the project options but the Extender API is currently being improved.

I'd recommend looking at the Project config file (Project > Project options > Save project options) and performing some processing on that.
