Incorrect work of Passive Scan Issues

Sergey | Last updated: Nov 27, 2020 10:40AM UTC

I began to actively use extensions that analyze content in a passive mode, and noticed that in the latest version (and maybe earlier) there is a problem with creating an issue. For example, the Software Version Reporter extension stops adding new issues despite the fact that the log shows that the super.processIssues function is being called. Apparently, this also applies to built-in passive checks. The bug can appear both in a few minutes after the start of work, and in a few hours. The easiest way to detect it is to write a bot in selenium, proxy it through a burp, and use it to go through the list of sites. From some point on, passive checks stop creating an issue.
