Other then that, this release contains no other changes from 1.5.4.

The vulnerability is tracked in http://issue.k8s.io/43459.

**Who is affected?**

Only Kubernetes 1.5.0-1.5.4 installations that do all of the following:
* Enable the PodSecurityPolicy API (which is not enabled by default):
  * `--runtime-config=extensions/v1beta1/podsecuritypolicy=true`

discovery now includes the singularName used to refer to the resource. ([#43312](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/43312), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k))

* Enhance the garbage collection admission plugin so that a user who doesn't have delete permission of the owning object cannot modify the blockOwnerDeletion field of existing ownerReferences, or add new ownerReferences with blockOwnerDeletion=true ([#43876](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/43876), [@ca...

For stable features, the `kubectl` tool follows the Kubernetes [version skew policy](https://kubernetes.io/releases/version-skew-policy/);
however, kubectl v1.21 and older do not support the new API for ephemeral containers.

* kubeadm: use the CRI for preflights checks ([#55055](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55055), [@runcom](https://github.com/runcom))
* kubeadm now produces error during preflight checks if swap is enabled. Users, who can setup kubelet to run in unsupported environment with enabled swap, will be able to skip that preflight check. ([#55399](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55399), [@kad](https://github.com/kad))

- Kubeadm: when using a custom image repository for CoreDNS kubeadm now will append the "coredns"  image name instead of  "coredns/coredns", thus restoring the behaviour existing before the v1.21 release. Users who rely on nested folder for the coredns image should set the "clusterConfiguration.dns.imageRepository" value including the nested path name (e.g using "registry.company.xyz/coredns" will force kubeadm to use "registry.company.xyz/coredns/coredns" image)....

- Azure cloud provider now obtains AAD token who audience claim will not have spn: prefix ([#87590](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87590), [@weinong](https://github.com/weinong)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

- Kubelet now cleans up the Node's cloud node IP annotation correctly if you
  stop using `--node-ip`. (In particular, this fixes the problem where people who
  were unnecessarily using `--node-ip` with an external cloud provider in 1.23,
  and then running into problems with 1.24, could not fix the problem by just

 - Deprecated support for CSI migration of `Ceph RBD volumes`. Users who were relying on Kubernetes' ability
