- The deprecated kubelet security controls `AllowPrivileged`, `HostNetworkSources`, `HostPIDSources`, and `HostIPCSources` have been removed. Enforcement of these restrictions should be done through admission control (such as `PodSecurityPolicy`) instead. ([#77820](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77820), [@dims](https://github.com/dims))

- Added CEL runtime cost calculation into ValidatingAdmissionPolicy, matching the evaluation cost
  restrictions that already apply to CustomResourceDefinition.
  If rule evaluation uses more compute than the limit, the API server aborts the evaluation and the

- kube-apiserver: the `NodeRestriction` admission plugin now prevents kubelets from modifying `Node` labels prefixed with `node-restriction.kubernetes.io/`. The `node-restriction.kubernetes.io/` label prefix is reserved for cluster administrators to use for labeling `Node` objects to target workloads to nodes in a way that kubelets cannot modify or spoof.

### Detection

Kubernetes Audit logs may indicate if the user name was misspelled to bypass the restriction placed on which user is a pod allowed to run as.
