### Bug or Regression

- Fix Job tracking with finalizers for more than 500 pods, ensuring all finalizers are removed before counting the Pod. ([#104876](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104876), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor)) [SIG Apps]

    }

    public String getFileContents(File file, String encoding) throws IOException {
        return FileUtils.fileRead(file, encoding);
    }

    protected void finalize() throws Throwable {
        maybeWarnAboutCleanUp();

        super.finalize();
    }

    public File createFile(String filename, String content, String encoding) throws IOException {
        File dir = createTempDir();

- Finalizer Protection for Service LoadBalancers is now in beta (enabled by default). This feature ensures the Service resource is not fully deleted until the correlating load balancer resources are deleted. ([#81691](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/81691),...

- Fixes a bug where Services using finalizers may hold onto ClusterIP and/or NodePort allocated resources for longer than expected if the finalizer is removed using the status subresource ([#120655](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120655), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG Network and Testing]
