Laravel Tricks
Debugging mode
If Laravel is in debugging mode you will be able to access the code and sensitive data.
For example http://127.0.0.1:8000/profiles:
This is usually needed for exploiting other Laravel RCE CVEs.
.env
Laravel saves the APP it uses to encrypt the cookies and other credentials inside a file called .env that can be accessed using some path traversal under: /../.env
Laravel will also show this information inside the debug page (that appears when Laravel finds an error and it's activated).
Using the secret APP_KEY of Laravel you can decrypt and re-encrypt cookies:
