- Fixed a bug where `Services` using finalizers may hold onto `ClusterIP` and/or `NodePort` allocated resources for longer than expected if the finalizer is removed using the status subresource. ([#120623](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120623), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

The merged fix enforces validation against the proxying address for a Node. In some cases, the fix can break clients that depend on the `nodes/proxy` subresource, specifically if a kubelet advertises a localhost or link-local address to the Kubernetes control plane. Configuring an egress proxy for egress to the cluster network can also mitigate this vulnerability.

**Affected Versions**:

- Promoted kubectl `--subresource` flag to stable. ([#130238](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130238), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))

### Authorization
* The authorization.k8s.io API group was promoted to v1 ([#40709](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/40709), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
* The SubjectAccessReview API now passes subresource and resource name information to the authorizer to answer authorization queries. ([#40935](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/40935), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

### Autoscaling

    writing it has test supersource but no prod supersource.

    GWT happens to use the prod .gwt.xml, so it looks for no supersource for
    tests, either. This causes it to fail to find AtomicLongMapTest.

    Our workaround is to tell GWT that util.concurrent and all other packages
    have prod supersource, even if they have none. GWT is happy to ignore us
