XML exports containing null bytes are causing issues when parsing

Aaron | Last updated: Mar 04, 2020 11:54AM UTC

Hello! I work with the Dradis team and we're currently experiencing issues with importing some Burp exports. On some of the XML exports, it seems that there are null bytes present particularly in the issueDetail field. This is causing issues with parsing the XML (using Nokogiri) and details are lost on import. Are the null bytes intended? If so, what do you suggest to prevent these from appearing in Burp exports? If this is a bug, what's the expected timeline for the fix? And if you need, I have some sample files that show the null bytes. Thank you!

Hi Aaron, Are you able to email support@portswigger.net with some example files so that we can investigate further?
