SeriaLog Burp Suite Extension

Overview

SeriaLog is a Burp Suite extension that provides comprehensive logging capabilities from all Burp tools. It allows for advanced filtering using both standard filters and custom Java expressions (lambda). The extension also supports exporting all logs and the sitemap in serialized (.ser), XML, and JSON formats, ensuring data integrity and efficient storage. SeriaLog offers a user interface similar to Burp Proxy History, enabling easy highlighting, deletion, search, and other basic operations.
