Nuclei is a fast tool for configurable targeted scanning based on templates offering massive extensibility and ease of use.
Nuclei is used to send requests across targets based on a template leading to zero false positives and providing effective scanning for known paths. The main use cases for nuclei are during the initial reconnaissance phase to quickly check for low hanging fruits or CVEs across targets that are known and easily detectable. It uses
retryablehttp-go library designed to handle various errors and retries in case of blocking by WAFs, this is also one of our core modules from custom-queries.
We have also
open-sourced a template repository to maintain the various types of templates, we hope that you will contribute there too. Templates are provided in hopes that these will be useful and will allow everyone to build their own templates for the scanner. Checkout the templating guide at
nuclei.projectdiscovery.io for a primer on nuclei templates.
