### Other notable changes

* Prevents a `kubectl delete` hang when deleting controller managed lists ([#65367](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65367), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k))

- KCM sets the upper-bound timeout limit for outgoing requests to 70s. Previously no timeout was set. Requests without explicit timeout might potentially hang forever and lead to starvation of the application.
