- Updates that remove remaining `metadata.finalizers` from  an object that is pending deletion (non-nil metadata.deletionTimestamp) and has no graceful deletion pending (nil or 0 metadata.deletionGracePeriodSeconds) now results in immediate deletion of the object. ([#77952](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77952), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* Improve efficiency of preemption logic in clusters with many pending pods. ([#72895](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72895), [@bsalamat](https://github.com/bsalamat))

// CompleteMultipartUpload - completes a pending multipart transaction, on hashedSet based on object name.

- Fix a bug that when PodTopologySpread rejects Pods, they may be stuck in Pending state for 5 min in a worst case scenario.
  The same problem could happen with custom plugins which have Pod/Add or Pod/Update in EventsToRegister,

* Make ConfigMap volume readable as non-root ([#23793](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/23793), [@pmorie](https://github.com/pmorie))
* only include running and pending pods in daemonset should place calculation ([#23929](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/23929), [@mikedanese](https://github.com/mikedanese))

* Fixed an issue reporting lack of progress for a deployment prematurely ([#52178](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52178), [@kargakis](https://github.com/kargakis))
* [fluentd-gcp addon] Bug with event-exporter leaking memory on metrics in clusters with CA is fixed. ([#52263](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52263), [@crassirostris](https://github.com/crassirostris))

- Fix the code is leaking the defaulting between unrelated pod instances. ([#103284](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/103284), [@kebe7jun](https://github.com/kebe7jun)) [SIG CLI]

* Improved **correctness** in corner cases.
* **Safer** types.
* Better **performance** and **less energy** consumption.
* Better **extensibility**.
* etc.

...all this while keeping the **same Python API**. In most of the cases, for simple models, you can simply upgrade the Pydantic version and get all the benefits. 🚀

### Runtime log sanitation

Logs can now be configured to use runtime protection from leaking sensitive data. [Details for this experimental feature is available in documentation](https://docs.k8s.io/concepts/cluster-administration/system-logs/#log-sanitization).
