- Expanded the partial fix for https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/111539
  which was already started in https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/109706
  Specifically, we will now reduce the amount of syncs for `ETP=local` services even

*   Taint key `unreachable` is now in GA.
*   Taint key `notReady` is changed to `not-ready`, and is also now in GA.
*   These changes are automatically updated for taints. Tolerations for these taints must be updated manually. Specifically, you must:
    *   Change `node.alpha.kubernetes.io/notReady` to `node.kubernetes.io/not-ready`
    *   Change `node.alpha.kubernetes.io/unreachable` to  `node.kubernetes.io/unreachable`

  - bazel: output go_binary rule directly from go_binary_conditional_pure
    
    From: [@mikedanese](https://github.com/mikedanese):
    Instead of aliasing. Aliases are annoying in a number of ways. This is
    specifically bugging me now because they make the action graph harder to
    analyze programmatically. By using aliases here, we would need to handle
    potentially aliased go_binary targets and dereference to the effective
    target.

The merged fix enforces validation against the proxying address for a Node. In some cases, the fix can break clients that depend on the `nodes/proxy` subresource, specifically if a kubelet advertises a localhost or link-local address to the Kubernetes control plane. Configuring an egress proxy for egress to the cluster network can also mitigate this vulnerability.

- .status.terminating field now gets tracked faster when active Pods are deleted, specifically when Job is failed, gets suspended or has too many active pods. ([#125175](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125175), [@dejanzele](https://github.com/dejanzele)) [SIG Apps and Testing]

- The AllowedTopologies field inside StorageClass is now validated against set and map semantics. Specifically, there cannot be duplicate TopologySelectorTerms, MatchLabelExpressions keys, or TopologySelectorLabelRequirement Values.

* Check for known manifests during preflight instead of only checking for non-empty manifests directory. This makes the preflight checks less heavy-handed by specifically checking for well-known files (kube-apiserver.yaml, kube-controller-manager.yaml, kube-scheduler.yaml, etcd.yaml) in /etc/kubernetes/manifests instead of simply checking for a non-empty directory.

The Service Plan Defaults feature is still under active development.
We continue to improve the UX for the svcat CLI, specifically filling in gaps for the new Namespaced Service Broker feature.
