* RBAC: The system:kubelet-api-admin cluster role can be used to grant full access to the kubelet API  so integrators can grant this role to the --kubelet-client-certificate credential given to the apiserver. ([#57128](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57128), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

To grow the developer community, SIG Windows  released multiple [tools](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/sig-windows-dev-tools/). The new tools support multiple CNI providers (Antrea, Calico), can run on multiple platforms (any vagrant compatible provider, such as Hyper-V, VirtualBox, or vSphere).

- Enabled AttachVolumeLimit feature ([#69225](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/69225), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied))
- The default storage class annotation for the storage addons has been changed to use the GA variant ([#68345](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68345), [@smelchior](https://github.com/smelchior))

- Kubeadm: instead of passing the etcd flag --experimental-initial-corrupt-check, set the InitialCorruptCheck=true etcd feature gate, and instead of passing the --experimental-watch-progress-notify-interval flag, pass its graduated variant --watch-progress-notify-interval. ([#132838](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/132838), [@AwesomePatrol](https://github.com/AwesomePatrol)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

  
  Before upgrading to 1.35, ensure any custom ClusterRoles and Roles intended to grant `pods/exec`, `pods/attach`, or `pods/portforward` permission include the `create` verb. ([#134577](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/134577), [@seans3](https://github.com/seans3)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth, Node and Testing]

- `ElasticIndexedJob` is graduated to GA. ([#125751](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125751), [@ahg-g](https://github.com/ahg-g)) [SIG Apps and Testing]
- `pause`: Added a `-v` flag to the Windows variant of the pause binary, which
  prints the version of pause and exits. The Linux pause binary already has this flag. ([#125067](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125067), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))

  - Default RBAC policy no longer grants access to discovery and permission-checking APIs (used by `kubectl auth can-i`) to *unauthenticated* users. Upgraded clusters preserve prior behavior, but cluster administrators wishing to grant unauthenticated users access in new clusters will need to explicitly opt-in to expose the discovery and/or permission-checking APIs: ([#73807](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73807), [@dekkagaijin](https://github.com/dekkagaijin))

    ```
    kubectl create clusterrolebinding kube-system-default --serviceaccount=kube-system:default --clusterrole=cluster-admin
    ```

## **Known Issues**

Pruning is activated by setting `spec.preserveUnknownFields: false` in the CustomResourceDefinition. A future apiextensions.k8s.io/v1 variant of CRDs will enforce pruning.

Pruning requires that CRD developer provides complete, structural validation schemas, either at the top-level or for all versions of the CRD.
