Is it possible to use TLS passthrough for a specific directory path in a URL

Andrew | Last updated: Mar 30, 2022 09:41AM UTC

Could you please tell me if it is possible to use TLS passthrough proxy option to pass through specific directories within a host domain? So that these directories would be passed through, but not others on the same host? (eg. the "support" directory of https://portswigger.net/support ) Thanks very much.

Thanks for your message. The TLS passthrough proxy option is applicable to the host rather than specific directories within a host domain. Can you tell us more about your scenario and what you need to achieve? Would using the target scope help? https://portswigger.net/burp/documentation/desktop/tools/target/scope

Thanks very much for you reply. The main thing I am trying to achieve is to reduce latency for traffic that I do not wish to analyse (traffic passing through the proxy is be much slower that without the proxy). Excluding traffic via the target scope does not seem to improve the latency for that traffic. The only thing that I have found that does, is adding it to the TLS passthrough list. Thanks very much Andrew
