### CVE-2021-25735: Validating Admission Webhook does not observe some previous fields

A security issue was discovered in kube-apiserver that could allow node
updates to bypass a Validating Admission Webhook. You are only affected
by this vulnerability if you run a Validating Admission Webhook for Nodes
that denies admission based at least partially on the old state of the
Node object.

- Kube-apiserver adds two new alpha metrics `conversion_webhook_request_total` and `conversion_webhook_duration_seconds` that allow users to monitor requests to CRD conversion webhooks, split by result, and failure_type (In case of failure). ([#118292](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118292), [@cchapla](https://github.com/cchapla))...

* Reduce memory utilization of admission webhook metrics by removing resource related labels. ([#69895](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/69895), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz))

    * Before, when users run admission webhook as an addon pod, after they remove the webhook, kube-addon-manager won't cleanup the webhook configuration `MutatingWebhookConfiguration`/`ValidationWebhookConfiguration`, because those resources are not prune-whitelisted. Cluster will go into a bad state that no pod can be admitted.

- Introduces a new metric: `admission_webhook_request_total` with the following labels: name (string) - the webhook name, type (string) - the admission type, operation (string) - the requested verb, code (int) - the HTTP status code, rejected (bool) - whether the request was rejected, namespace (string) - the namespace of the...
