- Add --permit-address-sharing flag to `kube-apiserver` to listen with `SO_REUSEADDR`. While allowing to listen on wildcard IPs like 0.0.0.0 and specific IPs in parallel, it avoids waiting for the kernel to release socket in `TIME_WAIT` state, and hence, considerably reducing `kube-apiserver` restart times under certain conditions. ([#93861](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/93861),...

parameter in kube-proxy is misleading, no port is opened with this address. Instead it is translated internally to "nodeIP". The nodeIPs for both families are now taken from the Node object if `--bind-address` is unspecified or set to the "any" address (0.0.0.0 or ::). It is recommended to leave `--bind-address` unspecified, and in particular avoid to set it to localhost (127.0.0.1 or ::1) ([#119525](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119525), [@uablrek](https://github.com/uablrek)) [SIG Network...

- The kubelet, when using `--cloud-provider=external` can use the `--node-ip` flag with one of the unspecified addresses 0.0.0.0 or ::, to create the Node with the IP of the default gateway of the corresponding IP family and then delegating the responsibility to the external cloud provider. This solves the bootstrap problems of out of tree cloud providers that are deployed...

- In dual-stack bare-metal clusters, you can now pass dual-stack IPs to `kubelet --node-ip`.
  eg: `kubelet --node-ip 10.1.0.5,fd01::0005`. This is not yet supported for non-bare-metal
  clusters.
  
  In dual-stack clusters where nodes have dual-stack addresses, hostNetwork pods

- Apiserver will now reject connection attempts to `0.0.0.0/::` when handling a proxy subresource request. ([#107402](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/107402), [@anguslees](https://github.com/anguslees))
