- Ignore the case when comparing azure tags in service annotation. ([#104705](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104705), [@nilo19](https://github.com/nilo19))
- Ignore the case when updating Azure tags. ([#104593](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104593), [@nilo19](https://github.com/nilo19))

- The `priority_level_request_utilization` metric histogram is adjusted so that for the cases where `phase=waiting` the denominator is the cumulative capacity of all of the priority level's queues.

- Kubeadm: fixed a bug where the node registration information for a given node was not fetched correctly during "kubeadm upgrade node" and the node name can end up being incorrect in cases where the node name is not the same as the host name.

following in mind:

* **JSON configuration files that contain fields with incorrect case will no longer be valid. You must correct these files before upgrading.** When specifying keys in JSON resource definitions during direct API server communication, the keys are case-sensitive. A bug introduced in Kubernetes 1.8 caused the API server to accept a request with incorrect case and coerce it to correct case, but this behaviour has been fixed in 1.11 and the API server will once again be enforcing...

* Updates defaultbackend to 1.5 ([#69380](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/69380), [@bowei](https://github.com/bowei))

- Ensure Azure availability zone is always in lower cases. ([#89722](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89722), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

- Fixed a bug where hard evictions due to resource pressure allowed pods
  to use the full termination grace period instead of shutting down instantly. 
  This bug also affected force deleted pods. Both cases now receive a termination grace period of 1 second. ([#124063](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124063), [@olyazavr](https://github.com/olyazavr))

validation. Bypassing this validation could allow authenticated requests destined for Nodes to be redirected to the API Server through its private network.

The merged fix enforces validation against the proxying address for a Node. In some cases, the fix can break clients that depend on the `nodes/proxy` subresource, specifically if a kubelet advertises a localhost or link-local address to the Kubernetes control plane. Configuring an egress proxy for egress to the cluster network can also...

- In some cases, a Flex volume resize may leave a PVC with erroneous Resizing condition even after volume has been successfully expanded. Users may choose to delete the condition, but it is not required. ([#71470](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/71470))
