Some scan queue keep "waiting to cancel" status, even restart Burp Pro

Shawn | Last updated: Aug 07, 2018 11:39PM UTC

Some scan queue keep "waiting to cancel" status, even restart Burp Pro: After I try to cancel some scan tasks in queue, there remains 20+ tasks in "waiting to cancel" status, and it will occupy scan threads, but those tasks are not changing into scan or cancel, restart BurpPro didn't fix the issue. I want to know how to remove (cancel) those "zombie" tasks. BurpPro Version 1.7.34 Thanks, Shawn

Shawn, is the application you are testing still responsive when this occurs? Could you send us your diagnostics (Help > Diagnostics) to support@portswigger.net?

The testing is the "zombie" task is hung up, but other new added scan is OK if I raise concurrent thread count over the "zombie" task #. Another thing is, after I upgrade to 1.7.36 yesterday, I found those task finally moved into "Cancelled" state. Thanks, Shawn
