already mitigates these http/2 attacks may choose not to enable the kube-apiserver mitigation to avoid disrupting load balancer → kube-apiserver connections if http/2 requests from multiple clients share the same backend connection. An API server on a private network may choose not to enable the kube-apiserver mitigation to prevent performance regressions for unauthenticated clients. Authenticated requests rely on the fix in golang.org/x/net v0.17.0 alone. https://issue.k8s.io/121197 tracks further mitigation...

## Changelog since v1.6.5

### Action Required

* The `kube-cloud-controller-manager` flag `--service-account-private-key-file` was non-functional and is now deprecated. ([#50289](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/50289), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
    * The `kube-cloud-controller-manager` flag `--use-service-account-credentials` is now honored consistently, regardless of whether `--service-account-private-key-file` was specified.

- e2e tests that require SSH may now be used against clusters that have nodes without external IP addresses by setting the environment variable `KUBE_SSH_BASTION` to the `host:port` of a machine that is allowed to SSH to those nodes.  The same private key that the test would use is used for the bastion host.  The test connects to the bastion and then tunnels another SSH connection to the node.

  - `--service-account-signing-key-file`, set to a file containing a private key to use to sign service account tokens. Can be the same file given to `kube-controller-manager` with `--service-account-private-key-file`.

* Default mount propagation has changed from "HostToContainer" ("rslave" in Linux terminology) to "None" ("private") to match the behavior in 1.9 and earlier releases. "HostToContainer" as a default caused regressions in some pods. ([#62462](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/62462), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane))
