  author: geeknik,DhiyaneshDk
  severity: high
  description: |

    comments: 'This template downloads the manage.py file to check whether it contains line such as: `os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "APP_NAME.settings")` if it does, we extract the APP_NAME to know in what folder to look for the settings.py file.'
