How this template works
APIs Selection
The API selection filters in this template specify the criteria for selecting the APIs to be tested. In this case, the filters include the response code range (between 200 and 299) and the extraction of the "urlVar" variable from the URL.
Execute request
The execute section of the template defines the type of request to be executed and the modifications to be made to the URL. In this case, a single request is made, and the URL is modified using the "urlPaths" word list, which contains various paths related to the Laravel .env file.
Validation
The validation section specifies the conditions that the response should meet to be considered valid. In this template, the response code should be equal to 200, and the response payload should contain at least one of the specified sensitive information keywords related to the Laravel .env file.
