Acunetix WVS Build v8.0.20120911


The new build of Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner released today includes a number of new features, new security checks and also a number of bug fixes. Ideal for scanning and securing today’s complex custom web applications, the main new feature allows importing of multiple HTTP Sniffer logs to the same crawl (manual crawling of web applications). It is also possible to import HTTP Sniffer logs into an already existing crawl.

New Features
  • A new option that allows you to specify a different email address for each configured scan in the scheduler.
  • HTTP Fuzzer number generator now supports padding, e.g. you can use a leading zero i.e. from 01 to 10.
  • A new option to specify if the latest cookie from the scanned website should be used rather than the one discovered during crawling.
  • New option to force scanner to not overwrite user specified custom cookies with newer cookies from the scanned website.
