  When you enable the `KMSv2KDF` feature gate (off by default), KMS v2 uses a key derivation function to generate single use data encryption keys from a secret seed combined with some random data. This eliminates the need for a counter based nonce while avoiding nonce collision concerns associated with AES-GCM's 12 byte nonce. ([#118828](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118828), [@enj](https://github.com/enj))
