### CVE-2021-25741: Symlink Exchange Can Allow Host Filesystem Access

A security issue was discovered in Kubernetes where a user may be able to
create a container with subpath volume mounts to access files &
directories outside of the volume, including on the host filesystem.

**Affected Versions**:
  - kubelet v1.22.0 - v1.22.1
  - kubelet v1.21.0 - v1.21.4
  - kubelet v1.20.0 - v1.20.10
  - kubelet <= v1.19.14

* [stable] You can now customize the iSCSI initiator name per volume in the iSCSI volume plugin.

* [stable] You can now specify the World Wide Identifier (WWID) for the volume identifier in the Fibre Channel volume plugin.

* [beta] Reclaim policy in StorageClass

- Now users can get object info like:

  ```bash
    a. kubectl get pod test-pod -o custom-columns=CONTAINER:.spec.containers[0:3].name
    b. kubectl get pod test-pod -o custom-columns=CONTAINER:.spec.containers[-2:].name
  ```

([#73063](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73063), [@WanLinghao](https://github.com/WanLinghao))

  and removed `--short` flag entirely. ([#116720](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/116720), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))
- Kube-controller-manager deprecate `--volume-host-cidr-denylist` and `--volume-host-allow-local-loopback` flags. ([#118128](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118128), [@carlory](https://github.com/carlory)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, Network, Node, Storage and Testing]

- All data is no longer automatically deleted when a failure is detected during creation of the volume data file on a CSI volume. Now only the data file and volume path is removed. ([#96021](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96021), [@huffmanca](https://github.com/huffmanca))

- Added a warning when creating or updating a PersistentVolume (PV) with the deprecated annotation `volume.beta.kubernetes.io/mount-options`. ([#124819](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124819), [@carlory](https://github.com/carlory))

- For raw block CSI volumes on Kubernetes, kubelet was incorrectly calling CSI `NodeStageVolume` for every single "map" (i.e. raw block "mount") operation for a volume already attached to the node. This change modified that behavior to ensure it is only called once per volume per node.

### SIG-storage

SIG Storage promoted the [Kubernetes volume topology feature](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/490) to beta. This enables Kubernetes to understand and act intelligently on volume accessibility information (such as the “zone” a cloud volume is provisioned in, the “rack” that a SAN array is accessible from, and so on).

    *   Only Fibre Channel volume plugin supports exposes this functionality, in this release.
*   [alpha] Volume resizing
    *   Added file system resizing for the following volume plugins: GCE PD, Ceph RBD, AWS EBS, OpenStack Cinder
*   [alpha] Topology Aware Volume Scheduling

  * If a node or kubelet crashes with a volume attached, the volume will remain
attached to that node. If that volume can only be attached to one node at a
time (GCE PDs attached in RW mode, for example), then the volume must be
manually detached before Kubernetes can attach it to other nodes.
  * If a volume is already attached to a node any subsequent attempts to attach it
