Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
A weakness has been identified in mettle sendportal up to 3.0.1. Affected is the function destroy of the file app/Http/Controllers/Workspaces/WorkspaceInvitationsController.php of the component Invitation Handler. This manipulation of the argument invitation causes authorization bypass. The attack may be initiated remotely. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Authorization bypass vulnerability in SendPortal's WorkspaceInvitationsController.php destroy function. The function fails to properly validate that the authenticated user owns or has permission to delete the specified invitation, allowing attackers to manipulate the invitation argument to bypass authorization checks and delete invitations they don't own.

MitigationUntil vendor provides a fix, implement middleware or policy-based authorization checks in the destroy function to verify user ownership of the invitation before deletion. Consider rate limiting the endpoint to reduce abuse potential.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm SendPortal installation
    Identify if SendPortal is running in your environment by locating the application codebase, typically in the web root directory. Look for composer.json or package.json files that identify the application as SendPortal, or check the application banner/footer for SendPortal branding.
    Affected if SendPortal is installed and the codebase is accessible for code review
  2. Locate WorkspaceInvitationsController.php
    Navigate to your SendPortal source code and locate the file at app/Http/Controllers/WorkspaceInvitationsController.php or the equivalent path in your installation structure.
    Affected if The controller file exists in the expected location
  3. Examine the destroy function authorization logic
    Open WorkspaceInvitationsController.php and locate the destroy method. Inspect the function to determine if it performs any authorization check before deleting the invitation. Look for calls to authorization methods such as $this->authorize(), policy checks, or manual user ownership validation.
    Affected if The destroy function lacks explicit authorization checks (such as policy gates, middleware, or ownership verification) before proceeding with deletion
  4. Check invitation parameter handling
    In the destroy function, examine how the $invitation parameter is handled. Verify whether the code retrieves the invitation from the database and validates that the authenticated user owns the workspace associated with that invitation before deletion.
    Affected if The code accepts the invitation ID from user input without verifying the authenticated user's ownership of the related workspace
  5. Test the deletion endpoint with unauthorized access
    If you have a test environment, attempt to delete an invitation belonging to a different workspace or user while authenticated as a non-owner user. Observe whether the deletion succeeds without proper authorization denial.
    Affected if A user can delete invitations belonging to workspaces they do not own or manage

If the destroy function in WorkspaceInvitationsController.php does not verify user ownership before deletion, the installation is vulnerable to CVE-2026-7145.
