* On cluster provision or upgrade, kubeadm now generates certs and secures all connections to the etcd static-pod with mTLS. This includes the etcd serving cert, the etcd peer cert, and the apiserver etcd client cert. Flags and hostMounts are added to the etcd and apiserver static-pods to load these certs. For connections to etcd, https is now used in favor of http. ([#57415](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57415),...

- Kubeadm: graduate the "kubeadm alpha certs" command to a parent command "kubeadm certs". The command "kubeadm alpha certs" is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please migrate.

- The CSR signing cert/key pairs will be reloaded from disk like the kube-apiserver cert/key pairs ([#86816](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/86816), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps and Auth]

- Kubeadm: remove the deprecated `--csr-only` and `--csr-dir` flags from `kubeadm init phase certs`. Deprecate the same flags under `kubeadm certs renew`. In both the cases the command `kubeadm certs generate-csr` should be used instead. ([#102108](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102108), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))

certificates directory as `kubelet-client.key` and `kubelet-client.crt`.  Subsequent certificates created by cert rotation were created in a combined PEM file that was atomically rotated as `kubelet-client-DATE.pem` in that directory, which meant clients relying on the `node.kubeconfig` generated by bootstrapping would never use a rotated cert.  The initial bootstrap certificate is now generated into the cert directory as a PEM file and symlinked to `kubelet-client-current.pem` so that the generated kubeconfig...

- Kubeadm: the "kubeadm alpha certs" command is removed now, please use "kubeadm certs" instead. ([#97706](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97706), [@knight42](https://github.com/knight42)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]
