- Fix handling of aws-load-balancer-security-groups annotation. Security-Groups assigned with this annotation are no longer modified by kubernetes which is the expected behaviour of most users. Also no unnecessary Security-Groups are created anymore if this annotation is used.

#### kubeadm

* [beta] A new `upgrade` subcommand allows you to automatically upgrade a self-hosted cluster created with kubeadm. ([#296](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/296), [@luxas](https://github.com/luxas))

* Added new flag to `kubeadm init`: --node-name, that lets you specify the name of the Node object that will be created ([#48594](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/48594), [@GheRivero](https://github.com/GheRivero))
* Added new flag to `kubeadm join`: --node-name, that lets you specify the name of the Node object that's gonna be created ([#48538](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/48538), [@GheRivero](https://github.com/GheRivero))

* The `--bootstrap-kubeconfig` argument to Kubelet previously created the first bootstrap client credentials in the certificates directory as `kubelet-client.key` and `kubelet-client.crt`.  Subsequent certificates created by cert rotation were created in a combined PEM file that was atomically rotated as `kubelet-client-DATE.pem` in that directory, which meant clients relying on the `node.kubeconfig` generated...

### AWS

* Add AWS cloud provider option to use an assumed IAM role. For example, this allows running Controller Manager in a account separate from the worker nodes, but still allows all resources created to interact with the workers. ELBs created would be in the same account as the worker nodes for instance.([#59668](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59668), [@brycecarman](https://github.com/brycecarman))

- Removed `BlockOwnerDeletion` from `ResourceClaim` created from `ResourceClaimTemplate` and from `extendedResourceClaim` created by the `scheduler`. ([#134956](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/134956), [@yliaog](https://github.com/yliaog)) [SIG Apps, Node and Scheduling]

### **Apps**

  - The built-in `system:aws-cloud-provider` cluster role is deprecated and will not be auto-created in a future release. Deployments using the AWS cloud provider should grant required permissions...

- Fix a bug in cronjob controller where already created jobs may be missing from the status. ([#120649](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120649), [@andrewsykim](https://github.com/andrewsykim)) [SIG Apps]
