  The annotation used to persist the issued credential identifier is now `authentication.kubernetes.io/issued-credential-id`. ([#123098](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123098), [@munnerz](https://github.com/munnerz)) [SIG Auth]

- Removing the last remaining in-tree gcp cloud provider and credential provider. Please use the external cloud provider and credential provider from https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider-gcp instead.

  - `alpha` support (guarded by the `ServiceAccountTokenJTI` feature gate) for adding a `jti` (JWT ID) claim to service account tokens it issues, adding an `authentication.kubernetes.io/credential-id` audit annotation in audit logs when the tokens are issued, and `authentication.kubernetes.io/credential-id` entry in the extra user info when the token is used to authenticate.

- Promoted pod resource `limit/request` metrics to stable. ([#115454](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115454), [@dgrisonnet](https://github.com/dgrisonnet))
- Removed AWS kubelet credential provider. Please use the external kubelet credential provider binary named `ecr-credential-provider` instead. ([#116329](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/116329), [@dims](https://github.com/dims)) [SIG Node, Storage and Testing]
