Hi folks,

The OWASP Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) is an easy to use integrated
penetration testing tool for finding vulnerabilities in web
applications.

It is designed to be used by people with a wide range of security
experience and as such is ideal for developers and functional testers
who are new to penetration testing as well as being a useful addition
to an experienced pen testers toolbox.

OWASP ZAP 2.0.0 is now available :
http://code.google.com/p/zaproxy/downloads/list

Quick summary of the main changes:

  • An integrated add-ons marketplace
  • A replacement for the 'standard' Spider
  • A new 'Ajax' spider
  • Web Socket support
  • Session awareness
  • Quick Start tab
  • User defined Contexts
  • Session scope
  • Different modes
  • A scripting console
  • Authentication handling
  • More API support
  • Fine grained scanning controls
  • New and improved active and passive scanning rules

For more details see the OWASP Blog post:

Many thanks to everyone who has contributed code, language files,
enhancement requests, bug reports and general feedback.
