Internal browser forces HTTPS after update

Amy | Last updated: Oct 26, 2023 01:53PM UTC

Hello! I am using the internal browser in Burp Suite, and after updating the community edition to version 2023.10.3.1 the browser forces HTTPS when I try to go to a HTTP site, and I get the error message "Unsupported or unrecognized SSL message" This worked yesterday before the update. After googling I found some posts saying that this was a issue with Chromium in previous versions. Since this update upgraded the Chromium, I think this might be the same issue? I have tried enabling and disabling "Convert HTTPS links to HTTP" without success. I have also tried using intercepter and dropping the first HTTPS request, also without success. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi If you go to Settings > Tools > Burp's browser > Browser data and either 'Clear all browser data from the browser data folder or change the folder used for browser data, does the issue persist?

It seems like that worked! Great, thank you very much!
