- `kubeadm alpha certs renew` and `kubeadm upgrade` now supports renewal of certificates embedded in KubeConfig files managed by kubeadm; this does not apply to certificates signed by external CAs.

### Signing Release Artifacts

Release artifacts are [signed](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/3031) using [cosign](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign)
signatures
and there is experimental support for [verifying image signatures](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/verify-signed-images/).

  - The requested name did not match the set of authorized names (`x509.HostnameError`)
  - The error surfaced after attempting a connection contained one of the substrings: "certificate is not trusted" or "certificate signed by unknown authority". ([#120736](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120736), [@MadhavJivrajani](https://github.com/MadhavJivrajani))

For detailed release notes on the three alpha features from SIG AWS, please refer to the following Changelogs:

- Kubeadm: add support for certificate chain validation. When using kubeadm in external CA mode, this allows an intermediate CA to be used to sign the certificates. The intermediate CA certificate must be appended to each signed certificate for this to work correctly. ([#97266](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97266), [@robbiemcmichael](https://github.com/robbiemcmichael)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

- Addressed an issue where a JWT authenticator set up via `--authentication-config` would encounter failures in verifying tokens not signed with RS256. ([#123282](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123282), [@enj](https://github.com/enj))

  // reports this record in Assigned. Assigned only updates in the status after
  // the record has been checkpointed to disk. When the Kubelet is restarted,
  // it tries to make the Assigned config the Active config by loading and
  // validating the checkpointed payload identified by Assigned.
  // +optional
  optional NodeConfigSource assigned = 1;

* kube-apiserver: the OpenID Connect authenticator can now verify ID Tokens signed with JOSE algorithms other than RS256 through the --oidc-signing-algs flag. ([#58544](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58544), [@ericchiang](https://github.com/ericchiang))

- Kubeadm: during execution of the "check expiration" command, treat the etcd CA as external if there is a missing etcd CA key file (etcd/ca.key) and perform the proper validation on certificates signed by the etcd CA. Additionally, make sure that the CA for all entries in the output table is included - for both certificates on disk and in kubeconfig files.
