### Bug or Regression

- Cluster-bootstrap: improve the security of the functions responsible for generation and validation of bootstrap tokens ([#120400](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120400), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle and Security]

- Improve handling of unmount failures when device may be in-use by another container/process ([#107789](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/107789), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied)) [SIG Storage]

strange, and the words did not come the same as they used to do:--

              Improve his shining tail,
            And pour the waters of the Nile
              On every golden scale!

### Bug or Regression

- Improve error message when a pod with user namespaces is created and the runtime doesn't support user namespaces. ([#131812](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/131812), [@rata](https://github.com/rata)) [SIG Node]

### Other (Cleanup or Flake)

- Improve error message when a pod with user namespaces is created and the runtime doesn't support user namespaces. ([#131783](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/131783), [@rata](https://github.com/rata)) [SIG Node]

## Dependencies

- A new `DisableCompression` field (default = `false`) has been added to kubeconfig under cluster info. When set to `true`, clients using the kubeconfig opt out of response compression for all requests to the apiserver. This can help improve list call latencies significantly when client-server network bandwidth is ample (>30MB/s) or if the server is CPU-constrained.

* Fix kubectl create secret/configmap to allow = values ([#24989](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/24989), [@derekwaynecarr](https://github.com/derekwaynecarr))
* Upgrade installed packages when building hyperkube to improve the security profile ([#25114](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/25114), [@aaronlevy](https://github.com/aaronlevy))

- Kube-apiserver: improve the validation error message shown for custom resources with CEL validation rules to include the value that failed validation ([#132798](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/132798), [@cbandy](https://github.com/cbandy)) [SIG API Machinery]...
