How should I set Hightlight on Issue

loulan | Last updated: Apr 15, 2020 07:49AM UTC

I used IScannerCheck, and tried to use baseRequestResponse.setHighlight to set Highlight when find Issue,but remind me that don't support set Highliht. I wanna set highlight when the Issue i'm looking forward to come up.

setHighlight() will apply a highlight to the IHttpRequestResponse item. The IScanIssue class has getHttpMessages() which returns the HTTP messages for which the issue was generated, in the form of an array of IHttpRequestResponse's. Have you tried using that to retrieve the objects to apply the highlight to?

I tried two things with python? No1. IScannerCheck.doPassiveScan(IHttpRequestResponse baseRequestResponse) baseRequestResponse.setHighlight('red') No2. class demo(IScanIssue): def __init__(self, httpMessage): httpMessage.setHighlight('red') self._httpMessage = [httpMessage] def getHttpMessages(self): return self._httpMessage Both failed. Told me "Item does not support highlights"

I would recommend looking at an existing extension that has implemented similar functionality, and see how they've done it. Bookmarks uses highlighting, but is written in Kotlin rather than Python. You can find all of the extensions available on the BApp Store on our public GitHub: https://github.com/PortSwigger
