### CVE-2024-5321: Incorrect permissions on Windows containers logs

A security issue was discovered in Kubernetes clusters with Windows nodes
where BUILTIN\Users may be able to read container logs and NT
AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users may be able to modify container logs.

**Affected Versions**:
  - kubelet <= 1.27.15
  - kubelet <= 1.28.11
  - kubelet <= 1.29.6
  - kubelet <= 1.30.2 

**Fixed Versions**:

- Fixed an issue where requests sent by the KMSv2 service would be rejected due to having an invalid authority header. ([#126930](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126930), [@Ruddickmg](https://github.com/Ruddickmg)) [SIG API Machinery and Auth]

  - kubelet <= 1.29.6
  - kubelet <= 1.30.2 

**Fixed Versions**:

  - The requested name does not match the set of authorized names (x509.HostnameError)
  - The error surfaced after attempting a connection contains one of the substrings: "certificate is not trusted" or "certificate signed by unknown authority" ([#120765](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120765), [@MadhavJivrajani](https://github.com/MadhavJivrajani)) [SIG Architecture and Cloud Provider]

### Introducing `RootCAConfigMap`

`RootCAConfigMap` graduates to Beta, separating from `BoundServiceAccountTokenVolume`. The `kube-root-ca.crt` ConfigMap is now available to every namespace, by default. It contains the Certificate Authority bundle for verify kube-apiserver connections.

### `kubectl debug` graduates to Beta

`kubectl alpha debug` graduates from alpha to beta in 1.20, becoming `kubectl debug`.

  - The requested name does not match the set of authorized names (x509.HostnameError)
  - The error surfaced after attempting a connection contains one of the substrings: "certificate is not trusted" or "certificate signed by unknown authority" ([#120766](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120766), [@MadhavJivrajani](https://github.com/MadhavJivrajani)) [SIG Architecture and Cloud Provider]
