- Node information is now embedded into Pod-bound service account tokens as additional metadata. The 'JTI' field is set in issued service account tokens, and this information is embedded as `authentication.kubernetes.io/credential-id` in the user's ExtraInfo.

- `kube-controller-manager`: The `LegacyServiceAccountTokenCleanUp` feature gate is now `beta` and enabled by default. When enabled, legacy auto-generated service account token secrets are auto-labeled with a `kubernetes.io/legacy-token-invalid-since` label if the credentials have not been used in the time specified by `--legacy-service-account-token-clean-up-period` (defaulting to one year), **and** are referenced from the `.secrets` list of a ServiceAccount object, **and**  are not referenced...

Kubernetes where users may be able to launch containers that bypass the mountable secrets policy enforced by the ServiceAccount admission plugin when using ephemeral containers. The policy ensures pods running with a service account may only reference secrets specified in the service account's secrets field. Kubernetes clusters are only affected if the ServiceAccount admission plugin and the `kubernetes.io/enforce-mountable-secrets` annotation are used together with ephemeral containers.
