# Breaking: #38496 - Shortcut redirects append all URL parameters

See [forge#38496](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/38496)

## Description

When a user accesses a shortcut page, all provided URL parameters are appended to
the target URL.

**Example:**

Page with UID 2 is a shortcut to page with UID 1 and these `linksVars` are configured:

```typoscript
config.linkVars = L
```

Old behavior:

[http://mydomain.tld?id=2&L=1&customparam=X](http://mydomain.tld?id=2&L=1&customparam=X) will redirect to [http://mydomain.tld?id=1&L=1](http://mydomain.tld?id=1&L=1)

New behavior:

[http://mydomain.tld?id=2&L=1&customparam=X](http://mydomain.tld?id=2&L=1&customparam=X) will redirect to [http://mydomain.tld?id=1&L=1&customparam=X](http://mydomain.tld?id=1&L=1&customparam=X)

## Impact

The target URL of a shortcut may change when additional parameters are provided in the URL.

## Affected Installations

All installations using shortcut pages are affected.

## Migration

There is no migration available.
