Sending items to intruder breaks known behaviour

Michael | Last updated: May 30, 2018 04:12AM UTC

When you send a new item to repeater in burp suite a new tab is created and the content from the old one is preserved. This is especially useful since it allows you to keep a history of actions. The same cannot be said for intruder: When I send a new item to intruder the current tab is overwritten and the requests/payloads used in a previous attack is lost. This makes comparing burp suite files back to old reports incredibly difficult to decipher since I then have to find the proofs for this in burp suite proxy history instead of looking at named tabs in intruder for a history. The behaviour of intruder would be a lot more useful if it was treated the same as repeater and created a new tab each time a request is sent over with "send to intruder" menu.
