-[39925](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/39925): URL prefixing for `SUPERSET_APP_ROOT` subdirectory deployments is now handled automatically by helpers in `src/utils/navigationUtils` (`openInNewTab`, `redirect`, `getShareableUrl`, `<AppLink>`). Direct imports of `ensureAppRoot` / `makeUrl` from `src/utils/pathUtils` are forbidden outside `navigationUtils.ts` (enforced by a static-invariant test); contributors writing new code should use the focused helpers instead. No runtime behaviour change for existing callers — all 19 prior call sites have been migrated and four pre-existing double-prefix and missing-prefix bugs are fixed as part of the migration.

-[39925](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/39925): `SupersetClient.getUrl()` now strips a single leading application-root segment from the supplied `endpoint` before building the request URL, so a caller that accidentally pre-prefixes its endpoint (for example by wrapping it with `ensureAppRoot` before passing it to the client) no longer produces a doubled `/superset/superset/...` URL under subdirectory deployment. The strip is **single-pass** — a genuine `/superset/superset/<slug>` route is preserved, not collapsed — and **silent** (no console warning); the static-invariant test remains the primary signal for pre-prefixing at the call site, and this runtime strip is a safety net beneath it. Code that intentionally targeted a literal `/<app_root>/<app_root>/...` endpoint through `getUrl` (a configuration that has no legitimate use under the prefixing model) would have its first redundant segment removed.

-**Breaking — `Superset` view class route prefix removed.** The `Superset` view in `superset/views/core.py` now declares `route_base = ""`, overriding Flask-AppBuilder's auto-derived `/superset` prefix. Routes that previously lived at `/superset/welcome/`, `/superset/dashboard/<id>/`, `/superset/dashboard/p/<key>/`, `/superset/explore/`, etc. now respond at `/welcome/`, `/dashboard/<id>/`, `/dashboard/p/<key>/`, `/explore/`, etc. Under subdirectory deployment (`SUPERSET_APP_ROOT=/superset`) the URLs are unchanged from end-user perspective — `AppRootMiddleware` re-applies the prefix via `SCRIPT_NAME`. Under root deployments, any external integration or bookmark that hard-codes `/superset/<endpoint>/` paths must be updated to drop the prefix. This fixes the doubled `/superset/superset/...` URLs that `url_for` emitted for these endpoints under subdirectory deployment and the related 404s on the routes themselves.
46

47

-**Breaking — Three sibling view classes route prefix removed.** Following the same rationale as the `Superset` class above, `ExplorePermalinkView` (`superset/views/explore.py`), `TagModelView`, and `TaggedObjectsModelView` (`superset/views/tags.py`, `superset/views/all_entities.py`) now mount at the application root rather than a hard-coded `/superset/...`. The user-visible URLs `/superset/explore/p/<key>/`, `/superset/tags/`, and `/superset/all_entities/` are unchanged under subdirectory deployment; under root deployments these views now serve `/explore/p/<key>/`, `/tags/`, and `/all_entities/`, so any external integration or bookmark must drop the `/superset/` prefix. `Dashboard.url` and `Dashboard.get_url` likewise return `/dashboard/<id>/` instead of the prior `/superset/dashboard/<id>/` literal so downstream consumers (DashboardList row hrefs, MCP service `dashboard_url`) emit a single, deployment-correct prefix.

-**Legacy `/superset/*` path support.** A new outermost WSGI middleware `LegacyPrefixRedirectMiddleware` (`superset/middleware/legacy_prefix_redirect.py`) 308-redirects every enumerated legacy `/superset/<canonical>` path to its post-`route_base=""` canonical location (e.g. `/superset/welcome/` → `/welcome/` under root; → `/superset/welcome/` under `SUPERSET_APP_ROOT=/superset`, because the canonical resolves through `AppRootMiddleware`). Bookmarks, email links, and external integrations survive the route-base collapse for one release cycle. POST against a GET-only canonical returns 410 Gone instead of 308 (308 would 405 on retry). The shim is removed at EOL `5.0.0`, matching the `@deprecated(eol_version="5.0.0")` gate on `Superset.explore` and `Superset.explore_json`.

-**PWA web app manifest served dynamically.** The PWA manifest is now served at `/pwa-manifest.json` (under `APPLICATION_ROOT`) by a new `PwaManifestView` (`superset/views/pwa_manifest.py`) instead of the static file at `/static/assets/pwa-manifest.json`. The legacy static source at `superset-frontend/src/pwa-manifest.json` has been removed (along with its `webpack.config.js``CopyPlugin` rule). The new endpoint resolves `APPLICATION_ROOT` and `STATIC_ASSETS_PREFIX` at request time so PWA install works under subdirectory deployments and split static-prefix / app-root deployments (where `STATIC_ASSETS_PREFIX` points to a CDN host while the Superset backend stays under `APPLICATION_ROOT`). The `<link rel="manifest">` href in `superset/templates/superset/spa.html` was updated correspondingly (using a new `application_root_rstrip` template global). Operators with a forked `spa.html` should switch any manifest `<link>` to `{{ application_root_rstrip }}/pwa-manifest.json`.

-**Hard re-bookmark break — `/superset/sql/<database_id>/`.** SQL Lab moved to its own blueprint at `/sqllab/`. The legacy `/superset/sql/<id>/` shape changed to a query-string form (`/sqllab/?dbid=<id>`); no 1:1 path mapping exists, so `LegacyPrefixRedirectMiddleware` does **not** redirect this route — it passes through and surfaces a 404. Users with bookmarks to `/superset/sql/<id>/` must update them to `/sqllab/?dbid=<id>`.
54
+
55
+
-**`SqlaTable.sql_url` query-string format.**`SqlaTable.sql_url` now URL-encodes `table_name` and joins it as a query parameter rather than concatenating a second `?`. Previously, with `Database.sql_url` returning `/sqllab/?dbid=<id>`, the concatenation produced `/sqllab/?dbid=<id>?table_name=<raw>` — a malformed second `?` that broke the query parser. External code that parsed the legacy `<base>?table_name=<raw>` shape now sees properly percent-encoded values (e.g. `/` → `%2F`, `` → `+` or `%20`); decode with `urllib.parse.parse_qsl`.
56
+
57
+
-**New config flag `EMBEDDED_DISABLE_PERMALINK_ORIGIN_REWRITE` (default `False`).** Share/permalink URLs now substitute `window.location.origin` for the backend-supplied origin so a proxied or subdirectory-deployed Superset never hands the user an unreachable internal hostname. Operators whose reverse proxy correctly forwards `X-Forwarded-Host`*and* who want permalinks to carry the backend's literal origin can opt out by setting `EMBEDDED_DISABLE_PERMALINK_ORIGIN_REWRITE = True` in `superset_config.py`. Default `False` (rewrite is on); flipping the default would regress the dominant proxied/subdir deployment to an unreachable host.

### SQL Lab denies large-object and information_schema access by default
60
+
61
+
`DISALLOWED_SQL_FUNCTIONS` and `DISALLOWED_SQL_TABLES` now ship with additional default entries, so SQL Lab and chart-data queries that reference them are rejected where they were previously allowed:
62
+
63
+
- PostgreSQL large-object routines (`lo_from_bytea`, `lo_export`, `lo_import`, `lo_put`, `lo_create`, `lo_creat`, `lowrite`, `lo_get`, `loread`, `lo_unlink`), which read and write bytes on the database server's filesystem.
64
+
- The SQL-standard `information_schema` views (`tables`, `columns`, `routines`, `views`, the privilege/grant views, etc.), which expose table, column, privilege, and view-definition metadata across the whole database.
65
+
66
+
Deployments that legitimately query these (for example tooling that introspects `information_schema`) can restore the previous behavior by overriding `DISALLOWED_SQL_FUNCTIONS` / `DISALLOWED_SQL_TABLES` in `superset_config.py` to drop the entries they need.
67
+
68
+
Because the denylist now resolves the effective schema through the query-aware path, PostgreSQL queries that change the `search_path` (e.g. `SET search_path = ...`) are rejected on the SQL Lab execution and cost-estimate paths whenever any `DISALLOWED_SQL_TABLES` entry is configured (the default for PostgreSQL), matching the behavior previously applied only when `RLS_IN_SQLLAB` was enabled.

Single data-file uploads (CSV, Excel, columnar) are now bounded by the `UPLOAD_MAX_FILE_SIZE_BYTES` config option, which defaults to `100 * 1024 * 1024` (100 MB). Files larger than this are rejected with a `413` before their contents are buffered into memory. Set `UPLOAD_MAX_FILE_SIZE_BYTES = None` to disable the check and restore unbounded uploads.

### Currency symbol position follows the locale when unset
176
+
177
+
When a chart's currency control leaves the **Prefix or suffix** field empty, the currency symbol position is now derived from the deployment locale's own convention via `Intl.NumberFormat` instead of always defaulting to a suffix. For example, under the default `en-US` locale `USD`, `GBP`, and `EUR` render as a prefix (`$ 1,000`), while eurozone locales such as `fr-FR` render `EUR` as a suffix (`1 000 €`). An explicit Prefix/Suffix selection is always honored and is unaffected.
178
+
179

Charts that relied on the previous always-suffix default for an unset position will render the symbol on the locale-appropriate side instead; set the position explicitly on the metric's currency control to pin it.

### Composite primary keys on many-to-many association tables
596
+
597
+
Eight M:N association tables move from a synthetic `id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY` to a composite `PRIMARY KEY (fk1, fk2)` on their two foreign-key columns. The surrogate `id` is dropped, and the redundant `UNIQUE (fk1, fk2)` on the two tables that carried one is removed (now subsumed by the PK).
- The migration **deletes** two classes of pre-existing rows the composite PK cannot accommodate: duplicate `(fk1, fk2)` pairs (it keeps the lowest `id` and removes the rest) and rows with `NULL` in either FK column. Both are meaningless for `secondary=` association tables, but export the affected rows first if you need an audit record.
613
+
- External tooling (BI tools, backup scripts) that references the surrogate `id` on these tables will break; no application code references it.
614
+
- Downgrade restores the `id` column (and the original `UNIQUE` on the two tables that had it) but leaves the FK columns `NOT NULL` (intentional — a `NULL` FK in a junction row is meaningless).

-[33055](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/33055): Upgrades Flask-AppBuilder to 5.0.0. The AUTH_OID authentication type has been deprecated and is no longer available as an option in Flask-AppBuilder. OpenID (OID) is considered a deprecated authentication protocol - if you are using AUTH_OID, you will need to migrate to an alternative authentication method such as OAuth, LDAP, or database authentication before upgrading.
