- Improved handling of jsonpath expressions for `kubectl wait --for`. It is now possible to use simple filter expressions which match on a field's content. ([#118748](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118748), [@andreaskaris](https://github.com/andreaskaris))

#### Azure

- Kubelet can now run without identity on Azure. A sample cloud provider configuration is:  `{"vmType": "vmss", "useInstanceMetadata": true, "subscriptionId": "<subscriptionId>"}` ([#77906](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77906), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))
