As a beginner you should better not touch Laravel right away. Especially if you want to learn it in while learning to find vulnerabilities. Laravel abstracts PHP too much. All the code that sanitizes your data is hidden in Eloquent or the Authentication Module and you will never be in contact with Security except maybe the encryption methods to store passwords

I recommend you start with simple one file scripts. try to look what happens when you don't use htmlspecialchars() on user inputted code. (Tip: try <script>alert("hello");</script>) and understand the dangers. And learn what goes wrong in the code for all other type of security flaws.

When you are confident in basic PHP and want to write a Web application, Go for Laravel. I use it myself and I think it's an awesome framework.

As lenoch stated, a framework isn't a good way to understand to code and finding exploits, especially large frameworks such as laravel as they have many eyes on it to harden the code. Learn basic php scripting and databases, how PHP speaks with databases and commen mistakes website developers make that can open up SQLi, XSS, RFI, LFI and others. A good foundation of PHP will also make utilizing frameworks much easier.

Good luck on your journey and I think 3 years is a decent time frame to explore what you want. BTW, welcome to EvilZone.

Those are completely separate goals, and if you feel that you could learn both at the same time go ahead, you asked for our input and we gave it. We said learn core php and common web exploitation techniques prior to utilizing and learning a framework. By all means do whatever you want, but don't ask for advise if you're not going to listen to it.
