* change azure disk host cache to ReadOnly by default ([#72229](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72229), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))

- The `controller.kubernetes.io/pod-deletion-cost` annotation can be set to offer a hint on the cost of deleting a `Pod` compared to other pods belonging to the same ReplicaSet. Pods with lower deletion cost are deleted first. This is an alpha feature. ([#99163](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99163), [@ahg-g](https://github.com/ahg-g))

## Changelog since v1.26.8

## Changes by Kind

### API Change

- Fixed a bug where CEL expressions in CRD validation rules would incorrectly compute a high estimated cost for functions that return strings, lists or maps.

  - The `ValidateProxyRedirects` feature was promoted to Beta and enabled by default. This feature restricts redirect-following from the apiserver to same-host redirects.  If nodes are configured to respond to CRI streaming requests on a different host interface than what the apiserver makes requests on (only the case if not using the built-in dockershim & setting the kubelet flag `--redirect-container-streaming=true`), then these requests will be broken....

### Other notable changes

* [GCE] Apiserver uses `InternalIP` as the most preferred kubelet address type by default. ([#59019](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59019), [@MrHohn](https://github.com/MrHohn))

- Fixed a bug where CEL expressions in CRD validation rules would incorrectly compute a high estimated cost for functions that return strings, lists or maps.

- Fix handling of aws-load-balancer-security-groups annotation. Security-Groups assigned with this annotation are no longer modified by kubernetes which is the expected behaviour of most users. Also no unnecessary Security-Groups are created anymore if this annotation is used.
