[Auditing](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/debug/debug-cluster/audit/) is now enabled behind a featureGate in kubeadm. A user can supply their own audit policy with configuration option as well as a place for the audit logs to live. If no policy is supplied a default policy will be provided. The default policy will log all Metadata level policy logs. It is the example provided in the documentation.

  - When registering with a 1.17+ API server, a CustomResourceDefinition conversion webhook can now request that only `v1` ConversionReview requests be sent to them. Previously, conversion webhooks were required to support receiving `v1beta1` ConversionReview requests as well for compatibility with API servers <= 1.15. ([#82707](https://github.com/kubernetes/...

* Development of Kubernetes Federation has moved to github.com/kubernetes/federation.  This move out of tree also means that Federation will begin releasing separately from Kubernetes.  The impact of this is Federation-specific behavior will no longer be included in kubectl, kubefed will no longer be released as part of Kubernetes, and the Federation servers will no longer be included in the hyperkube binary and image.

(liveness & readiness) probes using an HTTPGetAction will no longer follow redirects to different hostnames from the original probe request. Instead, these non-local redirects will be treated as a Success (the documented behavior). In this case an event with reason "ProbeWarning" will be generated, indicating that the redirect was ignored. If you were previously relying on the redirect to run health checks against different endpoints, you will need to perform the healthcheck logic outside the Kubelet,...

- Kube-proxy's IPVS proxy mode no longer sets the net.ipv4.conf.all.route_localnet sysctl parameter. Nodes upgrading will have net.ipv4.conf.all.route_localnet set to 1 but new nodes will inherit the system default (usually 0). If you relied on any behavior requiring net.ipv4.conf.all.route_localnet, you must set ensure it is enabled as kube-proxy will no longer set it automatically. This change helps to further mitigate CVE-2020-8558. ([#92938](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/92938),...
