Proxying tools from WSL2 to Burp

Joao | Last updated: May 05, 2022 02:26PM UTC

Hi, I am using burp on windows and want to send requests from the WSL2 windows subsystem to burp, but i keep getting connection refused errors. Im not sure what am i missing.

already figured out, i had to create a proxy rule with the windows machine host address

Hi Do you have some more details on where you're having issues?

I cannot forward traffic from any command line tools to burpsuite from wsl. For example, In httpx, I can set the flag -http-proxy http://127.0.0.1:8080 and send it to burp. But it's not working in wsl.
