#### Node Authorization

- kube-apiserver: `--service-account-max-token-expiration` can now be used in combination with an external token signer `--service-account-signing-endpoint`, as long as the `--service-account-max-token-expiration` is not longer than the external token signer's max expiration. ([#129816](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/129816),...

- Added a `Stream` field to `PodLogOptions`, which allows clients to request certain log stream (stdout or stderr) of the container.
  Please also note that the combination of a specific `Stream` and `TailLines` is not supported. ([#127360](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/127360), [@knight42](https://github.com/knight42)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, Architecture, Node, Release and Testing]

  Added `validationActions` to `ValidatingAdmissionPolicyBinding`, enabling validation failures to be handled by any combination of the warn, audit and deny enforcement actions. ([#115973](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115973), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz))

* AWS cloud provider: allow to set KubernetesClusterID or KubernetesClusterTag in combination with VPC. ([#42512](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/42512), [@scheeles](https://github.com/scheeles))

- Remove support for the Service `topologyKeys` field (alpha) and the `kube-proxy` implementation of it. This field was deprecated several cycles ago. This functionality is replaced by the combination of automatic topology hints per-endpoint (alpha) and the Service `internalTrafficPolicy` field (alpha). ([#102412](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102412), [@andrewsykim](https://github.com/andrewsykim))

        * When used in combination with the `RBAC` authorization mode (`--authorization-mode=Node,RBAC`), the `system:node` role is no longer automatically granted to the `system:nodes` group.

- Generic ephemeral volumes can be used also as raw block devices, but the Pod validation was refusing to create pods with that combination. (#105682, @pohly) [SIG Apps, Storage and Testing]
- Generic ephemeral volumes were not considered properly by the node limits scheduler filter and the kubelet hostpath check. (#100482, @pohly) [SIG Node, Scheduling, Storage and Testing]
