Description
I found out one of our users is running CVE-bin-tool repeatedly because they want multiple report formats available. (This was causing them some NVD rate limiting problems, and I've directed them to https://cve-bin-tool.readthedocs.io/en/latest/how_to_guides/multiple_scans_at_once.html so they can address those.)
But I think we could probably support generating those in a single tool run without too much difficulty, since you could just call, say, both output_pdf
and output_json
on the same data. We would need to plumb through some command line options to make it work.
This should be a reasonably beginner-friendly issue because there won't need to be a lot of complicated code changes, but it may take longer than most things I flag as "good first issue" since you'll need to spend some time understanding output_engine.
Experienced folk also welcome to work on this one -- it'll potentially improve experience for an existing user so I'd love to have it in for next release if possible!
