  * When creating a container using envFrom. ([#42083](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/42083), [@fraenkel](https://github.com/fraenkel))
    * validate the name of the ConfigMap in a ConfigMapRef
    * validate the name of the Secret in a SecretRef

  // Errors may occur, for example, attempting to checkpoint Spec.ConfigSource to the local Assigned
  // record, attempting to checkpoint the payload associated with Spec.ConfigSource, attempting
  // to load or validate the Assigned config, etc.
  // Errors may occur at different points while syncing config. Earlier errors (e.g. download or
  // checkpointing errors) will not result in a rollback to LastKnownGood, and may resolve across

- Fix: resize Azure disk issue when it's in attached state ([#96705](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96705), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx)) [SIG Cloud Provider]
- Fixed a bug that prevents kubectl to validate CRDs with schema using x-kubernetes-preserve-unknown-fields on object fields.

- The new test `[sig-network] DNS should now provide /etc/hosts entries for the cluster [LinuxOnly] [Conformance]` will validate the host entries set in the ``/etc/hosts`` file (pod's FQDN and hostname), which should be managed by Kubelet.
