* Make kubelet ReadLogs backward compatible. ([#63268](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/63268), [@Random-Liu](https://github.com/Random-Liu))

  * Rescheduler relies on taints, which were changed in a backward incompatible way. Rescheduler 0.3 shipped together with Kubernetes 1.6 understands the new taints and will clean up the old annotations, but Rescheduler 0.2 shipped together with Kubernetes 1.5 doesn't understand the new taints. In order to avoid...

  It comes with an API change, a new delete option `ignoreStoreReadErrorWithClusterBreakingPotential` has
  been introduced, it is not set by default, this maintains backward compatibility.
  In order to perform an unsafe deletion of a corrupt resource, the user must enable the option for the delete

*   The admission webhook configurations API, part of the admissionregistration API, is now at v1beta1. Delete any existing webhook configurations before you upgrade, and update your configuration files to use the latest API. For...

### Deprecation

- Updated google.golang.org/protobuf to `v1.33.0` to resolve `CVE-2024-24786`. ([#123758](https://github.com/kubernetes/ku...

### Feature

- ACTION REQUIRED : In CoreDNS v1.7.0, [metrics names have been changed](https://github.com/coredns/coredns/blob/master/notes/coredns-1.7.0.md#metric-changes) which will be backward incompatible with existing reporting formulas that use the old metrics' names. Adjust your formulas to the new names before upgrading. 
  
  Kubeadm now includes CoreDNS version v1.7.0. Some of the major changes include:

  
  Having appropriate QueueingHintFn contributes to reducing useless retries and thus improves the overall scheduler's performance.
  
  **How can I migrate?**
  
  For backward compatibility, nil `QueueingHintFn` is treated as always returning QueueAfterBackoff. 
  So, if you want to just keep the existing behavior, you can register `ClusterEventWithHint` with no `QueueingHintFn` in it. 

    * Add metrics `*_admission_latencies_milliseconds` and `*_admission_latencies_milliseconds_summary` for backward compatible, but will be removed in a future release.

* For Deployment, ReplicaSet, and DaemonSet, selectors are now immutable when updating via the new `apps/v1beta2` API. For backward compatibility, selectors can still be changed when updating via `apps/v1beta1` or `extensions/v1beta1`.
