* kubectl cp now safely allows unpacking of symlinks that may point outside the destination directory ([#82384](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82384), [@tallclair](https://github.com/tallclair))

#### **Kubectl**

*   `kubectl cp` can now copy a remote file into a local directory. ([#46762](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46762),[ @bruceauyeung](https://github.com/bruceauyeung))
*   `kubectl cp` now honors destination names for directories. A complete directory is now copied; in previous versions only the file contents were copied. ([#51215](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51215),[ @juanvallejo](https://github.com/juanvallejo))

- Added the latest GCE pinhole firewall feature, which introduces `destination-ranges` in the ingress `firewall-rules`. It restricts access to the backend IPs by allowing traffic through `ILB` or `NetLB` only. This change does **NOT** change the existing `ILB` or `NetLB` behavior. ([#109510](https://github.com/kubernetes/...

<li>
When converting an integer or floating-point number to a floating-point type,
or a <a href="#Numeric_types">complex number</a> to another complex type, the result value is rounded
to the precision specified by the destination type.
For instance, the value of a variable <code>x</code> of type <code>float32</code>
may be stored using additional precision beyond that of an IEEE 754 32-bit number,

### API Change

* CRI now defines mounting behavior. If the host path doesn't exist, the runtime should return an error. If the host path is a symlink, the runtime should follow the symlink and mount the real destination to the container.

### SIG OpenStack

For the 1.8 release, SIG Network enhanced the NetworkPolicy API to support pod egress traffic policies.
The SIG also provided match criteria that allow policy rules to match a source or destination CIDR. Both features are in beta. SIG Network also improved the kube-proxy to include an alpha IPVS mode in addition to the current iptables and userspace modes.

- Fixed cost estimation of token creation request for service account in Priority and Fairness. ([#113206](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113206), [@marseel](https://github.com/marseel))
