What are URL rewrites and URL rewrite rules?
Web application developers use URL Rewrite Rules to hide parameters in the URL directory structure and is typically used to make it easier for search engines to index all the pages on a website. Another advantage of using URL rewriting technology is that all symbols such as question marks and equal signs are not used in URLs, thus making URLs easy to remember.

Question on: Invicti (formerly Netsparker)
What is the Knowledge base node and what is reported in it?
Netsparker Desktop and Netsparker Cloud are not just web vulnerability scanners that automatically identify vulnerabilities in web applications. They are all rounder web security tools that can highlight other potential security issues which are typically not classified as "vulnerabilities" but help attackers gain additional knowledge and craft a successful hack attack against a web application.
Netsparker scanners provide the user with a complete detailed analysis of the target web application. All of this information can be found under the knowledge base node, in the sitemap section.
