- CSINode initialization does not crash kubelet on startup when APIServer is not reachable or kubelet has not the right credentials yet. ([#89589](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89589), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane)) [SIG Storage]

* The AWS credential provider can now obtain ECR credentials even without the AWS cloud provider or being on an EC2 instance. Additionally, AWS credential provider caching has been improved to honor the ECR credential timeout.

- Added support in the kubelet's image pull credential tracking for service account-based verification. When an image was pulled using service account credentials via external credential providers, subsequent Pods using the same service account (UID, name, and namespace) could access the cached image without re-authentication for the lifetime of that 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 from pods. This label causes the authentication layer to reject use of the credentials. After being labeled as invalid, if the time specified by `--legacy-service-account-token-clean-up-period`...

If Elasticsearch has authentication enabled, the credentials can be supplied to MinIO via the `url` parameter formatted as `PROTO://USERNAME:PASSWORD@ELASTICSEARCH_HOST:PORT`.

To update the configuration, use `mc admin config get` command to get the current configuration.

```sh

    server.enqueue(
      MockResponse(code = 401),
    )
    server.enqueue(MockResponse())

    * The `kube-cloud-controller-manager` flag `--use-service-account-credentials` is now honored consistently, regardless of whether `--service-account-private-key-file` was specified.
* Fix credentials providers for docker sandbox image. ([#51870](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51870), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))
