Laravel 8.x redirect()->intended() keeps changing to the wrong url

I am trying to create a way to confirm the password when executing a sensible action on a website using laravel.

I use a form to create the action, that uses a route to the sensible action, using a middleware to confirm the password. At the end of the confirmation it returns redirect()->intended() to redirect to the action the route was originally was supposed to if no password verification took place.

The problem here is that no matter what, redirect()->intended() is never the action I wanted to execute in the first place, it just redirects to the page where the first form is generated.

I use a form to execute said action.

<form method="post" action="/user//sensible_page/"  enctype="multipart/form-data">
        
    
    <button type="submit" id="sensible_button" class="col-auto align-self-end btn btn-danger">Click to go to sensible page</a>
</form>

Here are the routes I use
    Route::get('/confirm-password', function () {
        return view('auth.confirm-password');
    })->name('password.confirm');

    Route::post('/confirm-password'function () {
        if(! Hash::check($request->password, $request->user()->password)) {
            return back()->withErrors([
                'password' => ['The provided password does not match our records.']
            ]);
        }
        return redirect()->intended(); //<--- this redirect is the one causing problems
    })->name('password.confirm');


    Route::post('/user/{username}/sensible_action/', [UserController::class, 'sensible_action'])->middleware(['password.confirm']); 

Here is the view to enter the password

<form method="POST" action="" novalidate>
   
    <p>Please confirm your password before continuing</p>
    <input type="password" id="password" name="password" placeholder="Password">           
    <button type="submit">Confirm</button>
</form>

And here is the action to be executed

    public function sensible_action(Request $request, $username)
    {
       
        $user = User::where('username','=',$username)->first();   
        User::findOrFail($user->id);
        $user->sensible_info=false;
        $user->save();
        return redirect("/user/".$username);
    }

Thank you for reaching the end and taking your time to help me.

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
