- Kube-apiserver: Each unique set of etcd server overrides specified with `--etcd-servers-overrides` surfaced health checks named `etcd-override-<index>` and `etcd-override-readiness-<index>`. These checks were still excluded by the `?exclude=etcd` and `?exclude=etcd-readiness` directives. ([#129438](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/129438), [@pa...

* Add support for Azure internal load balancer. ([#45690](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/45690), [@jdumars](https://github.com/jdumars))
* Fix `kubectl delete --cascade=false` for resources that don't have legacy overrides to orphan by default. ([#45713](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/45713), [@kargakis](https://github.com/kargakis))

- Kubeadm: when applying the overrides provided by the user using "extraArgs", do not sort the resulted list of arguments alpha-numerically. Instead, only sort the list of default arguments and keep the list of overrides unsorted. This allows finer control for flags which have an order that matters, such as, "--service-account-issuer" for kube-apiserver. ([#135850](https:/...

- Remove deprecated `--generator, --replicas, --service-generator, --service-overrides, --schedule` from `kubectl run`
  Deprecate `--serviceaccount, --hostport, --requests, --limits` in `kubectl run` ([#99732](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99732), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))

- The `--certificate-authority` flag now correctly overrides existing skip-TLS or CA data settings in the kubeconfig file ([#83547](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83547), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
### Cloud Provider

- TLS Server Name overrides can now be specified in a kubeconfig file and via --tls-server-name in kubectl ([#88769](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88769), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth and CLI]

- Structured Authentication Configuration now supports `DiscoveryURL`. If specified, `discoveryURL` overrides the URL used to fetch discovery information. This is for scenarios where the well-known and jwks endpoints are hosted at a different location than the issuer (such as locally in the cluster).

- Fixed a bug that unintentionally overrides custom Accept headers in http (live-/readiness)-probes if the header is in lowercase. ([#114606](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114606), [@tuunit](https://github.com/tuunit))
