* The `kube-cloud-controller-manager` flag `--service-account-private-key-file` was non-functional and is now deprecated. ([#50289](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/50289), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
    * The `kube-cloud-controller-manager` flag `--use-service-account-credentials` is now honored consistently, regardless of whether `--service-account-private-key-file` was specified.

* Default mount propagation has changed from "HostToContainer" ("rslave" in Linux terminology) to "None" ("private") to match the behavior in 1.9 and earlier releases. "HostToContainer" as a default caused regressions in some pods. ([#62462](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/62462), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane))

- Kubeadm: deprecate the "--csr-only" and "--csr-dir" flags of the "kubeadm init phase certs" subcommands. Please use "kubeadm alpha certs generate-csr" instead. This new command allows you to generate new private keys and certificate signing requests for all the control-plane components, so that the certificates can be signed by an external CA.

Kubernetes already validates the proxying address for Nodes, a bug in kube-apiserver made it possible to bypass this validation. Bypassing this validation could allow authenticated requests destined for Nodes to be redirected to the API Server through its private network.

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...
