feat(reporting): add PDF export option
projectdiscovery/nuclei#7060

Proposed Changes

Fixes #2063 — adds PDF export support for nuclei scan results.

Implementation

New pdf exporter following the existing Exporter interface pattern. Collects results during the scan and generates the PDF report on Close().

Report contents:

  • Title page with scan metadata and timestamp
  • Color-coded severity summary (critical/high/medium/low/info)
  • Findings overview table
  • Detailed per-finding pages with description, references, extracted results, and request/response blocks

Library: Uses github.com/go-pdf/fpdf — the actively maintained fork of jung-kurt/gofpdf (which is archived).

Config example:

pdf:
file: scan-report.pdf
omit-raw: false

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added PDF export for scan results with multi-page reports: title page, severity summary, overview table, and per-result detail sections.
    • PDF generation uses severity-based styling, per-row formatting, and automatic truncation for large payloads; includes an option to omit raw request/response data.
    • Reporting configuration now supports enabling/configuring the PDF exporter and is included in default initialization.
