Using Web Proxies - Zap Scanner HUD does not work

Module Question: Run ZAP Scanner on the target above to identify directories and potential vulnerabilities. Once you find the high-level vulnerability, try to use it to read the flag at ‘/flag.txt’

When I open a web browser through zap the HUD is non-responsive. When I attempt to run spider from the HUD, I am asked if I want to add it to scope. I confirm, but nothing is happens. When I press the button from the top left of the HUD to add the current domain to scope, nothing happens. When I run a Spider scan from ZAP (not the HUD), the scan will complete but no critical flags appear. Based on my research, ZAP is supposed to find a Remote OS Command Injection vuln. I also attempted to do an active scan. I also made sure the URL was added as context under the “sites” section. I feel like I’m missing something obvious but their are surprisingly very little tutorials and walkthroughs available online. Any help would be appreciated.

I had the same issue. The buttons are not responsive and I can’t turn on the Break button. Had to do everything though the desktop

The issues is still present in Firefox.
Trying to run Chromium with ZAP, but the ZAP can’t found the browser even when is explicitly set in the settings.

Can we get some help here?
