Authenticating to modern web apps is hard. The Authentication Helper add-on now has an AI Assisted Authentication method which uses an LLM to work out how to log in, then turns that into a fast, repeatable Client Script.

OAuth2 support has landed in the Authentication Helper, the Browser Extension has a new Script Viewer, ZAP can detect PHP2Shell, and we explain how we’re developing ZAP in the LLM age.

All ZAP versions from 2.14 use the old Brotli library, but as usual only the latest version of ZAP will receive the patch.
We strongly advise those of you running old versions of ZAP to update to 2.17.0
The ZAP Network add-on has been updated to use the latest Brotli library.
We do not believe that Java is affected by CVE-2026-111497 but we still recommend that you update this add-on from the ZAP Marketplace ASAP.
We have also regenerated the stable Docker image.

Blog: Detecting PHP2Shell and Other PHP Vulnerabilities with ZAP
PHP2Shell is the latest big “named” vulnerability. ZAP can now tell you if a site is running a vulnerable version of PHP, and it does so without sending a single extra request.

The ZAP Browser Extension (version 0.3.0) has a new Script Viewer. You can now see the Zest script you are recording as you record it, then edit it, replay it step by step, and load and save it, all without leaving the browser.

ZAP Updates for September:
The AJAX Spider and DOM XSS add-ons have now been fully retired from ZAP's nightly and weekly releases, and Phase 1 of the new Global Scan Policy Manager has landed behind a dev-mode flag.

#zaproxy#appsec
The latest weekly release does not include the AJAX Spider and DOM XSS add-ons.
You can install them via the Marketplace as usual, but we recommend you using the Client Spider and OWASP PTK add-ons instead.
