Hi,

I seem unable to determine whether ZAP's activescan capabilities include the automated search for backup files: the Internet provides me with conflicting views.

Please find more details on Stackoverflow:

Is backup files scanning bundled with ZAP? If yes, how?
Thanks in advance,
Ioni

You have a few options:

You _could_ also fuzz for them, but thats probably not so useful.


Anything else I've missed?


Cheers,

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your quick answer: I went for the Beta Active Scan rules :)

PS: even after being pointed to the resource, I searched for the rule for a while. I assumed it was hosted on GitHub with the zapextensions wiki, before having the idea to look for it on SourceForge. Maybe the add-ons' actual location could be explicitly stated at the top of the page you directed me to.

Hi.

ZAP no longer uses SourceForge, the add-ons are in GitHub
zap-extensions' "Releases" page:
https://github.com/zaproxy/zap-extensions/releases

Although you can also install them from within ZAP with the marketplace:
https://github.com/zaproxy/zap-core-help/wiki/HelpUiDialogsManageaddons#marketplace

Best regards.
