* The OpenID Connect authenticator can now use a custom prefix, or omit the default prefix, for username and groups claims through the --oidc-username-prefix and --oidc-groups-prefix flags. For example, the authenticator can map a user with the username "jane" to "google:jane" by supplying the "google:" username prefix. ([#50875](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/50875),...

  - `alpha` support (guarded by the `ServiceAccountTokenPodNodeInfo` feature gate) for including the node name (and uid, if the node exists) as additional claims in service account tokens it issues which are bound to pods, and `authentication.kubernetes.io/node-name` and `authentication.kubernetes.io/node-uid` extra user info when the token is used to authenticate.

- Fixed an issue where `pull image` fails from a cross-subscription Azure Container Registry when using MSI to authenticate. ([#77245](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77245), [@norshtein](https://github.com/norshtein))

* kube-apiserver: the OpenID Connect authenticator can now verify ID Tokens signed with JOSE algorithms other than RS256 through the --oidc-signing-algs flag. ([#58544](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58544), [@ericchiang](https://github.com/ericchiang))
