💻 Burp Suite + Firefox Configuration for WebGoat Labs
Having trouble intercepting localhost or WebGoat traffic in Burp Suite? You're not alone!
Modern versions of Firefox block localhost traffic from being routed through external proxies by default, which prevents Burp Suite from capturing requests even when your proxy settings are configured correctly.
🛠️ In this tutorial, you'll learn how to:
✅ Configure Firefox for Burp Suite
✅ Enable localhost traffic interception
✅ Modify the network.proxy.allow_hijacking_localhost setting
✅ Capture WebGoat requests successfully
✅ Troubleshoot common proxy issues
This is an essential setup step for anyone learning web application security, ethical hacking, bug bounty hunting, or penetration testing.
