<p> Two built-in functions, <code>panic</code> and <code>recover</code>,

* Fix a scheduler panic due to internal cache inconsistency ([#71063](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71063), [@Huang-Wei](https://github.com/Huang-Wei))
* apiserver: fixes handling and logging of panics in REST handlers to prevent crashes ([#71076](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71076), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

# optionally, remove the old secret
kubectl delete secret --namespace=federation federation-apiserver-secret
```

- Kubernetes components no longer handle panics, and instead actively crash.  All Kubernetes components should be run by something that actively restarts them. This is true of the default setups, but those with custom environments may need to double-check (#28800, @lavalamp)

* kubectl: fixes regression in --sort-by behavior ([#71805](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71805), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- Fixed concurrent map access causing panics when logging timed-out API calls. ([#105734](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105734), [@marseel](https://github.com/marseel))
- Fixed consolidate logs for `instance not found` error

* [fluentd-gcp addon] Bump version of fluentd-gcp to 2.0.18 to include latest security fixes. ([#67693](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67693), [@loburm](https://github.com/loburm))
* Return apiserver panics as 500 errors instead terminating the apiserver process. ([#68001](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68001), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))

- Kubeadm: Added missing cluster-info context validation to prevent panics when the user has a malformed kubeconfig in the cluster-info ConfigMap that excludes a valid current context. ([#134715](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/134715), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))
