- kube-controller-manager currently needs a writable `--cert-dir` (default is `/var/run/kubernetes`) for generating self-signed certificates, when no `--tls-cert-file` or `--tls-private-key-file` are provided.
- The `system:kube-controller-manager` ClusterRole lacks permission to `get` the `configmap` extension-apiserver-authentication. kube-controller-manager errors if run with a service account bound to the clusterrole.

 - Provides a fix to allow a cluster in a private Azure cloud to authenticate to ACR in the same cloud. ([#90425](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/90425), [@DavidParks8](https://github.com/DavidParks8)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

Kubernetes already validates the proxying address for Nodes, a bug in kube-apiserver made it possible to bypass this validation. Bypassing this validation could allow authenticated requests destined for Nodes to be redirected to the API Server through its private network.

The merged fix enforces validation against the proxying address for a Node. In some cases, the fix can break clients that depend on the `nodes/proxy` subresource, specifically if a kubelet advertises a localhost or link-local address...

already mitigates these http/2 attacks may choose not to enable the kube-apiserver mitigation to avoid disrupting load balancer → kube-apiserver connections if http/2 requests from multiple clients share the same backend connection. An API server on a private network may choose not to enable the kube-apiserver mitigation to prevent performance regressions for unauthenticated clients. Authenticated requests rely on the fix in golang.org/x/net v0.17.0 alone. https://issue.k8s.io/121197 tracks further mitigation...
