## Changelog since v1.12.7

### Other notable changes

* Connections from Pods to Services with 0 endpoints will now ICMP reject immediately, rather than blackhole and timeout. ([#72534](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72534), [@thockin](https://github.com/thockin))

- When client certificate files are provided, reload files for new connections, and close connections when a certificate changes. ([#79083](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/79083), [@jackkleeman](https://github.com/jackkleeman)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth, Node and Testing]

* After a kubelet rotates its client cert, it now closes its connections to the API server to force a handshake using the new cert. Previously, the kubelet could keep its existing connection open, even if the cert used for that connection was expired and rejected by the API server. ([#49899](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49899), [@ericchiang](https://github.com/ericchiang))

- Fixes regression in logging spurious stack traces when proxied connections are closed by the backend ([#82588](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82588), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
