- Kubeadm: when patching a Node object do not exit early on unknown (non-allowlisted) API errors. Instead, always retry within the duration of the polling for getting and patching a Node object. ([#136069](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/136069), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

  /** Weigher to weigh cache entries. */

  /** How long after the last write an entry becomes a candidate for refresh. */

- Fixed a race condition in the iptables mode of kube-proxy in `1.27` and later
  that could result in some updates getting lost (e.g., when a service gets a
  new endpoint, the rules for the new endpoint might not be added until
  much later). ([#122204](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122204), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship))

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 and the last valid config is used.
