- kube-proxy: os exit when CleanupAndExit is set to true ([#76732](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76732), [@JieJhih](https://github.com/JieJhih))
- Kubernetes will now allow trailing dots in the externalName of Services of type ExternalName. ([#78385](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78385), [@thz](https://github.com/thz))

### Node

- The Service field `spec.internalTrafficPolicy` is no longer defaulted for Services when the type is `ExternalName`. The field is also dropped on read when the Service type is `ExternalName`.
