Laravel APP_KEY Leaks Lead to RCE: GitGuardian + Synacktiv Reveal Massive Threat

In this video, cybersecurity researcher Guillaume Valadon of GitGuardian breaks down how exposed Laravel APP_KEYs on GitHub can lead to full Remote Code Execution (RCE) in real-world applications. Working in collaboration with Synacktiv, the team uncovered 260,000 exposed keys, validated 600+ vulnerable apps, and revealed that over 35% of leaks also exposed critical credentials like database passwords, cloud storage tokens, and API keys.
