Switch tab to DVWA and enter ‘pablo’ in the username field and ‘123’ in the password field(password field text is optional).

Change proxy to manual as explained at the start. Now we’ll actually capture traffic moving on DVWA and try to implement a brute force attack on the vulnerable system. Navigate to Proxy>Intercept tab and make sure the Intercept button reads “Intercept is on”. Go to the Brute Force option and add the url to target scope as you’ll be using other web applications of Firefox so Burp knows that DVWA is the site it has to stay within the scope of and it doesn’t end up sending any malicious traffic to websites that one isn’t authorized to test.

Select DVWA security and change it to ‘low’. Log in using the credentials: admin, passwordīY default, security is set to impossible. You can see the login page with two input fields ‘Username’ and ‘Password’. Initially set the Network proxy on firefox to ‘None’ and open up DVWA in the browser.

Here I’ll explain the basic use of these functionalities. The various features of Burp include proxy, spider, intruder, repeater, sequencer, decoder and comparer. Now open up Burp Suite and choose to create a temporary project The default setting is localhost 127.0.0.1 and port 8080 In order to intercept HTTP requests, the first step is to configure Firefox to use a manual proxy configuration(found under options>general settings>network proxy) The main characteristic of Burp is that it acts as an intercepting proxy, that is it intercepts the traffic between a web browser and web server. This blog post will take you through a quick run-through of the features provided by Burp by providing a demo on DVWA(Damn Vulnerable Web App). It establishes its usefulness by providing various hacking tools that impeccably work together throughout the entire Scanning and Testing process. It’s a java executable and hence is cross-platform. Burp Suite is a Penetration Tester’s go-to tool when performing a Web Penetration test.
