- Kube-up now includes CoreDNS version v1.9.3. ([#110488](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/110488), [@mzaian](https://github.com/mzaian))
- Kubeadm: Added support for additional authentication strategies in `kubeadm join` with discovery/kubeconfig file: client-go authentication plugins (`exec`), `tokenFile`, and `authProvider.` ([#110553](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/110553), [@tallaxes](https://github.com/tallaxes))

- ACTION REQUIRED: Support for basic authentication via the --basic-auth-file flag has been removed.  Users should migrate to --token-auth-file for similar functionality. ([#89069](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89069), [@enj](https://github.com/enj)) [SIG API Machinery]

* Fix PVC.Status.Capacity and AccessModes after binding ([#29982](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/29982), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane))
* oidc authentication plugin: don't trim issuer URLs with trailing slashes ([#29860](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/29860), [@ericchiang](https://github.com/ericchiang))

- Fixed a bug that caused apiservers to send an inappropriate Content-Type request header to authorization, token authentication, imagepolicy admission, and audit webhooks when the alpha client-go feature gate "ClientsPreferCBOR" is enabled.

    * If your code depended on these classes raising the old (less correct) `403` status code, check the new docs about how to override the classes, to use the same old behavior: [Use Old 403 Authentication Error Status Codes](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/how-to/authentication-error-status-code/).

### Internal

- The Kubernetes API server now correctly detects and closes existing TLS connections when its client certificate file for kubelet authentication has been rotated.
