- kubeadm: Allow users to skip the kube-proxy init addon phase during init and still be able to join a cluster and perform some other minor operations (but not upgrade). ([#82248](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82248), [@rosti](https://github.com/rosti))

* Fixed OpenAPI Description and Nickname of API objects with subresources ([#49357](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49357), [@mbohlool](https://github.com/mbohlool))
* Websocket requests to aggregated APIs now perform TLS verification using the service DNS name instead of the backend server's IP address, consistent with non-websocket requests. ([#49353](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49353), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- Kubeadm: during execution of the "check expiration" command, treat the etcd CA as external if there is a missing etcd CA key file (etcd/ca.key) and perform the proper validation on certificates signed by the etcd CA. Additionally, make sure that the CA for all entries in the output table is included - for both certificates on disk and in kubeconfig files. ([#106926](https://github.com/kubernetes/kub...

* Fix GCE etcd scripts to pass in all required parameters for the etcd migration utility to correctly perform HA upgrades and downgrades ([#61956](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61956), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz))

- Fixed CEL estimated cost for expressions that perform operations on the result of `map()` operations (e.g., `.map(...).exists(...)` ) to have the correct estimated cost instead of an unbounded cost.

**Affected Versions**:

- Memory limits can now be decreased with a NotRequired resize restart policy. When decreasing memory limits, perform a best-effort check to prevent limits from decreasing below usage and triggering an OOM-kill. ([#133012](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/133012), [@tallclair](https://github.com/tallclair)) [SIG Apps, Node and Testing]

- Added a new `--init-only` command line flag to `kube-proxy`. Setting the flag makes `kube-proxy` perform its initial configuration that requires privileged mode, and then exit. The `--init-only` mode is intended to be executed in a privileged init container, so that the main container may run with a stricter `securityContext`. ([#120864](https://git...
