// Pods are only limited to this list if this service account has a "kubernetes.io/enforce-mountable-secrets" annotation set to "true".
  // This field should not be used to find auto-generated service account token secrets for use outside of pods.
  // Instead, tokens can be requested directly using the TokenRequest API, or service account token secrets can be manually created.

* 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.

`kube-controller-manager`: The `LegacyServiceAccountTokenCleanUp` feature gate is now `beta` and enabled by default. When enabled, legacy auto-generated service account token secrets are auto-labeled with a `kubernetes.io/legacy-token-invalid-since` label if the credentials have not been used in the time specified by `--legacy-service-account-token-clean-up-period` (defaulting to one year), **and** are referenced from the `.secrets` list of a ServiceAccount object, **and**  are not referenced from pods....

Kubernetes where users may be able to launch containers that bypass the mountable secrets policy enforced by the ServiceAccount admission plugin when using ephemeral containers. The policy ensures pods running with a service account may only reference secrets specified in the service account's secrets field. Kubernetes clusters are only affected if the ServiceAccount admission plugin and the `kubernetes.io/enforce-mountable-secrets` annotation are used together with ephemeral containers.
