A few versions of Laravel were released last week, the latest being 5.5.27, which is available as of December 20th.

In 5.5.27, the performance improvements on Model::getTable() from 5.5.22 had to be reverted because of a breaking change. You should update your applications to 5.5.27 to avoid the breaking change introduced in 5.5.22.
