Burp Suite: Setting Foxyproxy

To begin, download Burp Suite Community Edition and ensure that the Proxy listener is enabled.

Download the FoxyProxy extension and add the Burp Suite proxy address and port.

Newer versions of Burp Suite has an embedded browser,, but I still find FoxyProxy easier to debug web apps.

Enable the Burp proxy and navigate to the interface where Burp is running (127.0.0.1:8080). Save the CA certificate when prompted.

To prevent Firefox SSL errors when using Burp, import the certificate we just downloaded by going to about:preferences#privacy in Firefox.
