Burp Suite on Arch (BlackArch) Linux - solving the illegal-access=permit error
In this video we install and run Burp suite on Black Arch linux. We'll also be solving the 'illegal-access=permit' error which will prevent Burp suite from running.
Although Black Arch ships with Burp suite by default, it doesn't work out of the box due to an issue with the default Java runtime environment used on Black Arch.
We'll solve the error in this video as well as set up firefox to proxy both http and https traffic through Burp suite while making use of the Firefox extension Foxy Proxy.
