- The (alpha) nftables mode of kube-proxy now requires version 1.0.1 or later
  of the nft command-line, and kernel 5.13 or later. (For testing/development
  purposes, you can use older kernels, as far back as 5.4, if you set the
  `nftables.skipKernelVersionCheck` option in the kube-proxy config, but this is not
  recommended in production since it may cause problems with other nftables

- `kubectl` now contains a `kubectl alpha debug` command. This command allows attaching an ephemeral container to a running pod for the purposes of debugging. ([#88004](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88004), [@verb](https://github.com/verb)) [SIG CLI]

- Profiling can now be served on a unix-domain socket by using the `--profiling-path` option (when profiling is enabled) for security purposes. ([#114191](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114191), [@apelisse](https://github.com/apelisse)) [SIG API Machinery]

- To avoid soft-deleted pods incorrectly affecting scale up replica count calculations, the HPA controller will stop counting soft-deleted pods for scaling purposes. ([#67067](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67067), [@moonek](https://github.com/moonek))

- Deprecated the `apiserver_request_slo_duration_seconds` metric for v1.27 in favor of `apiserver_request_sli_duration_seconds` for naming consistency purposes with other SLI-specific metrics and to avoid any confusion between SLOs and SLIs. ([#112679](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112679), [@dgrisonnet](https://github.com/dgrisonnet))

- Eliminated work when creating Services or understanding port purposes, especially for external resources deployed via Helm charts. ([#133018](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/133018), [@rushmash91](https://github.com/rushmash91))

- Ephemeral containers have been added in alpha. These temporary containers can be added to running pods for purposes such as debugging, similar to how `kubectl exec` runs a process in an existing container. Also like `kubectl exec`, no resources are reserved for ephemeral containers and they are not restarted when they exit. Note that container namespace targeting...

- kubeadm: removed the deprecated flag `--experimental-output`, please use the flag `--output` instead that serves the same purpose. Affected commands are: `kubeadm config images list`, `kubeadm token list`, `kubeadm upgrade plan`, `kubeadm certs check-expiration`.
