- Added a path `/header?key=` to `agnhost netexec` allowing one to view what the header value is of the incoming request.

  Ex:
  ```
  $ curl -H "X-Forwarded-For: something" 172.17.0.2:8080/header?key=X-Forwarded-For
  something
  ```

- The `--leader-elect*` CLI args are now honored in scheduler. ([#105915](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105915), [@Huang-Wei](https://github.com/Huang-Wei))

* Use separate client for leader election in scheduler to avoid starving leader election by regular scheduler operations. ([#53793](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53793), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

### Other (Cleanup or Flake)

- Client-go header logging (at verbosity levels >= 9) now masks `Authorization` header contents ([#95316](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95316), [@sfowl](https://github.com/sfowl)) [SIG API Machinery]

* kube-scheduler: restores default leader election behavior. leader-elect command line parameter should "true" ([#60524](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60524), [@dims](https://github.com/dims))

- Changed: default "Accept-Encoding" header removed from HTTP probes. See https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/#http-probes ([#96127](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96127), [@fonsecas72](https://github.com/fonsecas72)) [SIG Network and Node]

- Kubeadm init phase certs now support the `--csr-only` option, simplifying custom CA creation.
- `kubeadm join --experimental-control-plane` now automatically adds a new etcd member for `local etcd` mode, further simplifying required tasks for HA clusters setup.
- Improvements were made to `kubeadm reset` related to cleaning  etcd and notifying the user about the state of iptables.

- Adds the ability to pass --strict-transport-security-directives to the kube-apiserver to set the HSTS header appropriately.  Be sure you understand the consequences to browsers before setting this field. ([#96502](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96502), [@249043822](https://github.com/249043822)) [SIG Auth]
