CVE-2024-29291
Published: April 11, 2026
Official Description
An issue in Laravel Framework 8 through 11 might allow a remote attacker to discover database credentials in storage/logs/laravel.log. NOTE: this is disputed by multiple third parties because the owner of a Laravel Framework installation can choose to have debugging logs, but needs to set the access control appropriately for the type of data that may be logged.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2024-29291 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
CISA has added CVE-2024-29291 to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, confirming active exploitation in the wild. U.S. federal agencies are required to patch this within the mandated timeframe, and all organizations should treat remediation as urgent.
