- PodSecurityPolicy objects now support a `MayRunAs` rule for `fsGroup` and `supplementalGroups` options. This allows specifying ranges of allowed GIDs for pods/containers without forcing a default GID the way `MustRunAs` does. This means that a container to which such a policy applies to won't use any fsGroup/supplementalGroup GID if not explicitly specified, yet a specified GID...

* Fix a scalability issue where high rates of event writes degraded etcd performance. ([#64539](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64539), [@ccding](https://github.com/ccding))

- Added the latest GCE pinhole firewall feature, which introduces `destination-ranges` in the ingress `firewall-rules`. It restricts access to the backend IPs by allowing traffic through `ILB` or `NetLB` only. This change does **NOT** change the existing `ILB` or `NetLB` behavior.

- Kube-controller-manager: volume plugins can be restricted from contacting local and loopback addresses by setting `--volume-host-allow-local-loopback=false`, or from contacting specific CIDR ranges by setting `--volume-host-cidr-denylist` (for example, `--volume-host-cidr-denylist=127.0.0.1/28,feed::/16`) ([#91785](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/91785), [@mattcary](https://github.com/mattcary)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, Auth,...

* RBAC: the `system:node` role is no longer automatically granted to the `system:nodes` group in new clusters. It is recommended that nodes be authorized using the `Node` authorization mode instead. Installations that wish to continue giving all members of the `system:nodes` group the `system:node` role (which grants broad read access, including all secrets and configmaps) must create an installation-specific `ClusterRoleBinding`.
