A security issue was discovered in Kubernetes that could allow  Windows workloads to run as `ContainerAdministrator` even when those workloads set the `runAsNonRoot` option to `true `.

This issue has been rated low and assigned CVE-2021-25749

### Am I vulnerable?

All Kubernetes clusters with following versions, running Windows workloads with `runAsNonRoot` are impacted

#### Affected Versions

- kubelet v1.20 - v1.21

* Bug fixes

  * Changed Kubelet default image-gc-high-threshold to 85% to resolve a conflict with default settings in docker that prevented image garbage collection from resolving low disk space situations when using devicemapper storage. ([#40432](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/40432), [@sjenning](https://github.com/sjenning))

to ensure that autoscaling can occur optimially in all clusters,
within a set of global constraints on the total number of replicas
permitted across all clusters.  If replicas are not
required in some clusters due to low system load or insufficient quota
or capacity in those clusters, additional replicas are made available
to the autoscalers in other clusters if required.
