### Deprecation

- Action-required: kubeadm: graduate the "kubeadm alpha certs" command to a parent command "kubeadm certs". The command "kubeadm alpha certs" is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please migrate. ([#94938](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94938), [@yagonobre](https://github.com/yagonobre)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

containing service account tokens are no longer auto-generated for every ServiceAccount. Use the [TokenRequest](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/kubernetes-api/authentication-resources/token-request-v1/) API to acquire service account tokens, or if a non-expiring token is required, create a Secret API object for the token controller to populate with a service account token by following this [guide](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/#service-account-token-secrets).

- Kubeadm: allow the "certs check-expiration" command to not require the existence of the cluster CA key (ca.key file) when checking the expiration of managed certificates in kubeconfig files. ([#106930](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/106930), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster...

- The test "[sig-network] EndpointSlice should have Endpoints and EndpointSlices pointing to API Server [Conformance]" only requires that there is an EndpointSlice that references the "kubernetes.default" service, it no longer requires that its named "kubernetes". ([#104664](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104664), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

  - `response.patch` and `response.patchType` are not permitted from validating admission webhooks
  - `apiVersion: "admission.k8s.io/v1"` is required
  - `kind: "AdmissionReview"` is required
  - `response.uid: "<value of request.uid>"` is required
  - `response.patchType: "JSONPatch"` is required (if `response.patch` is set) ([#80231](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/80231), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- As of v1.25, the PodSecurity `restricted` level no longer requires pods that set .spec.os.name="windows" to also set Linux-specific securityContext fields. If a 1.25+ cluster has unsupported [out-of-skew](https://kubernetes.io/releases/version-skew-policy/#kubelet) nodes prior to v1.23 and wants to ensure namespaces enforcing the `restricted` policy continue to require Linux-specific securityContext fields on all pods, ensure a version of the `restricted` prior...
