Acunetix version 12 (build 12.0.190206130 – Windows and Linux) has been released. This new build makes it easier to record Login Sequences which can be used to scan restricted areas, and provides support to provide Swagger and WSDL as import files to be used by the scanner. The new build includes a good number of vulnerabilities checks for Web Backdoors, Stack trace Disclosure in a number of products, vulnerabilities in Oracle Reports, Docker, Jenkins server and Adobe Experience Manager. The new vulnerability checks, updates and fixes are available for both Windows and Linux.
