KEP of the Week
KEP 4601: Authorize with Field and Label Selectors
This KEP extends Kubernetes authorization attributes to include field and label selectors for List, Watch, and DeleteCollection verbs, allowing authorizers to make more granular security decisions. This enables out-of-tree authorizers to experiment with restrictions based on selectors, improving per-node workload security. Additionally, field and label selectors will be added to webhook authorization types, Subject Access Reviews (SSAR, SAR, Local SAR), and the node authorizer (restricting by nodeName), and will be integrated into the CEL authorizer for more advanced policy evaluations.
This KEP is tracked for alpha release in v1.32.
Other Merges
Accelerate responses for false negative access requests, speeding up workload startup
Use FormatOnly in gengo, which also involved making hundreds of API names unique; if you haven’t refreshed your repo copy after this merge, better do so
Regular init containers do not use the Sidecar code path, preventing startup failures
APIServer can offer UID headers
kubeadm upgrade apply and kubeadm upgrade node can upgrade just the addons or other specific elements, or skip them
Prevent InFlightPods from having more than one element
Remove conntrack binary from kube-proxy
Dynamic client-go won’t panic when it sees an UnstructuredList
Auto-restart init containers stuck in “created”
tryRegisterWithAPIServer continues whether or not it can create a node
New metrics: inflight_events for QueueingHints (but check for memory overflow)
Test improvements: NodeAffinity integration, image volume sharing
Promotions
AnonymousAuthConfigurableEndpoints to Beta
