### Design

- Prevent logging of docker config contents if file is malformed ([#95346](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95346), [@sfowl](https://github.com/sfowl)) [SIG Auth and Node]

### Bug or Regression

*   `tf.function`:

    *   `tf.function` now uses the Python inspect library directly for parsing the signature of the Python function it is decorated on. This change may break code where the function signature is malformed, but was ignored previously, such as:
        *   Using `functools.wraps` on a function with different signature
        *   Using `functools.partial` with an invalid `tf.function` input

- Kube-apiserver: the `--encryption-provider-config` file is now loaded with strict deserialization, which fails if the config file contains duplicate or unknown fields. This protects against accidentally running with config files that are malformed, mis-indented, or have typos in field names, and getting unexpected behavior. When `--encryption-provider-config-automatic-reload` is used, new encryption config files that contain typos after the kube-apiserver is running are treated as invalid...

- Kubelet: added validation for labels provided with --node-labels. Malformed labels will result in errors. ([#109263](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/109263), [@FeLvi-zzz](https://github.com/FeLvi-zzz))
