CVE-2018-1002105, a critical security issue in the Kubernetes API Server, is resolved in v1.13.0 (and in v1.10.11, v1.11.5, and v1.12.3). We recommend all clusters running previous versions update to one of these releases immediately. See issue #71411 for details.
Urgent Upgrade Notes
(No, really, you MUST do this before you upgrade)
Before upgrading to Kubernetes 1.13, you must keep the following in mind:
kube-apiserver
The deprecated etcd2 storage backend has been removed. Before upgrading a kube-apiserver using --storage-backend=etcd2, etcd v2 data must be migrated to the v3 storage backend, and kube-apiserver invocations changed to use --storage-backend=etcd3. Please consult the installation procedure used to set up etcd for specific migration instructions. Backups prior to upgrade are always a good practice, but since the etcd2 to etcd3 migration is not reversible, an etcd backup prior to migration is essential.
The deprecated --etcd-quorum-read flag has been removed. Quorum reads are now always enabled when fetching data from etcd. Remove the --etcd-quorum-read flag from kube-apiserver invocations before upgrading.
kube-controller-manager
The deprecated --insecure-experimental-approve-all-kubelet-csrs-for-group flag has been removed.
kubelet
The deprecated --google-json-key flag has been removed. Remove the --google-json-key flag from kubelet invocations before upgrading. (#69354, @yujuhong)
DaemonSet pods now make use of scheduling features that require kubelets to be at 1.11 or above. Ensure all kubelets in the cluster are at 1.11 or above before upgrading kube-controller-manager to 1.13.
The schema for the alpha CSINodeInfo CRD has been split into spec and status fields, and new fields status.available and status.volumePluginMechanism added. Clusters using the previous alpha schema must delete and recreate the CRD using the new schema. (#70515, @davidz627)
kube-scheduler dropped support for configuration files with apiVersion componentconfig/v1alpha1. Ensure kube-scheduler is configured using command-line flags or a configuration file with apiVersion kubescheduler.config.k8s.io/v1alpha1 before upgrading to 1.13.
kubectl
The deprecated command run-container has been removed. Invocations should use kubectl run instead (#70728, @Pingan2017)
client-go releases will no longer have bootstrap (k8s.io/client-go/tools/bootstrap) related code. Any reference to it will break. Please redirect all references to k8s.io/bootstrap instead. (#67356, @yliaog)
Kubernetes cannot distinguish between GCE Zonal PDs and Regional PDs with the same name. To workaround this issue, precreate PDs with unique names. PDs that are dynamically provisioned do not encounter this issue. (#70716, @msau42)
Known Issues
If kubelet plugin registration for a driver fails, kubelet will not retry. The driver must delete and recreate the driver registration socket in order to force kubelet to attempt registration again. Restarting only the driver container may not be sufficient to trigger recreation of the socket, instead a pod restart may be required. (#71487)
In some cases, a Flex volume resize may leave a PVC with erroneous Resizing condition even after volume has been successfully expanded. Users may choose to delete the condition, but it is not required. (#71470)
The CSI driver-registrar external sidecar container v1.0.0-rc2 is known to take up to 1 minute to start in some cases. We expect this issue to be resolved in a future release of the sidecar container. For verification, please see the release notes of future releases of the external sidecar container. (#76)
When using IPV6-only, be sure to use proxy-mode=iptables as proxy-mode=ipvs is known to not work. (#68437)
Deprecations
kube-apiserver
The --service-account-api-audiences flag is deprecated in favor of --api-audiences. The old flag is accepted with a warning but will be removed in a future release. (#70105, @mikedanese)
The --experimental-encryption-provider-config flag is deprecated in favor of --encryption-provider-config. The old flag is accepted with a warning but will be removed in 1.14. (#71206, @stlaz)
As part of graduating the etcd encryption feature to beta, the configuration file referenced by --encryption-provider-config now uses kind: EncryptionConfiguration and apiVersion: apiserver.config.k8s.io/v1. Support for kind: EncryptionConfig and apiVersion: v1 is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. (#67383, @stlaz)
The --deserialization-cache-size flag is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release. The flag is inactive since the etcd2 storage backend was removed. (#69842, @liggitt)
The Node authorization mode no longer allows kubelets to delete their Node API objects (prior to 1.11, in rare circumstances related to cloudprovider node ID changes, kubelets would attempt to delete/recreate their Node object at startup) (#71021, @liggitt)
The built-in system:csi-external-provisioner and system:csi-external-attacher cluster roles are deprecated and will not be auto-created in a future release. CSI deployments should provide their own RBAC role definitions with required permissions. (#69868, @pohly)
The built-in system:aws-cloud-provider cluster role is deprecated and will not be auto-created in a future release. Deployments using the AWS cloud provider should grant required permissions to the aws-cloud-provider service account in the kube-system namespace as part of deployment. (#66635, @wgliang)
kubelet
Use of the beta plugin registration directory {kubelet_root_dir}/plugins/ for registration of external drivers via the kubelet plugin registration protocol is deprecated in favor of {kubelet_root_dir}/plugins_registry/. Support for the old directory is planned to be removed in v1.15. Device plugin and CSI storage drivers should switch to the new directory prior to v1.15. Only CSI storage drivers that support 0.x versions of the CSI API are allowed in the old directory. (#70494 by @RenaudWasTaken and #71314 by @saad-ali)
With the release of the CSI 1.0 API, support for CSI drivers using 0.3 and older releases of the CSI API is deprecated, and is planned to be removed in Kubernetes v1.15. CSI drivers should be updated to support the CSI 1.0 API, and deployed in the new kubelet plugin registration directory ({kubelet_root_dir}/plugins_registry/) once all nodes in the cluster are at 1.13 or higher (#71020 and #71314, both by @saad-ali)
Use of the --node-labels flag to set labels under the kubernetes.io/ and k8s.io/ prefix will be subject to restriction by the NodeRestriction admission plugin in future releases. See admission plugin documentation for allowed labels. (#68267, @liggitt)
kube-scheduler
The alpha critical pod annotation (scheduler.alpha.kubernetes.io/critical-pod) is deprecated. Pod priority should be used instead to mark pods as critical. (#70298, @bsalamat)
The following features are now GA, and the associated feature gates are deprecated and will be removed in a future release:
CSIPersistentVolume
GCERegionalPersistentDisk
KubeletPluginsWatcher
VolumeScheduling
kubeadm
The DynamicKubeletConfig feature gate is deprecated. The functionality is still accessible by using the kubeadm alpha kubelet enable-dynamic command.
The command kubeadm config print-defaults is deprecated in favor of kubeadm config print init-defaults and kubeadm config print join-defaults (#69617, @rosti)
support for the v1alpha3 configuration file format is deprecated and will be removed in 1.14. Use kubeadm config migrate to migrate v1alpha3 configuration files to v1beta1, which provides improvements in image repository management, addons configuration, and other areas. The documentation for v1beta1 can be found here: https://godoc.org/k8s.io/kubernetes/cmd/kubeadm/app/apis/kubeadm/v1beta1
The node.status.volumes.attached.devicePath field is deprecated for CSI volumes and will not be set in future releases (#71095, @msau42)
kubectl
The kubectl convert command is deprecated and will be removed in a future release (#70820, @seans3)
Support for passing unknown provider names to the E2E test binaries is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Use --provider=skeleton (no ssh access) or --provider=local (local cluster with ssh) instead. (#70141, @pohly)
Major Themes
SIG API Machinery
For the 1.13 release, SIG API Machinery is happy to announce that the dry-run functionality is now beta.
In v1.13 we worked on tighter integrations of Kubernetes API objects with AWS services. These include three out-of-tree alpha feature releases:
Alpha for AWS ALB (Application Load Balancer) integration to Kubernetes Ingress resources.
Alpha for CSI specification 0.3 integration to AWS EBS (Elastic Block Store)
Alpha for the cloudprovider-aws cloud controller manager binary. Additionally we added aws-k8s-tester, deployer interface for kubetest, to the test-infra repository. This plugin allowed us to integrate Prow to the 3 subprojects defined above in order to provide CI signal for all 3 features. The CI signal is visible here under SIG-AWS.
For detailed release notes on the three alpha features from SIG AWS, please refer to the following Changelogs:
For 1.13 SIG Azure was focused on adding additional Azure Disk support for Ultra SSD, Standard SSD, and Premium Azure Files. Azure Availability Zones and cross resource group nodes were also moved from Alpha to Beta in 1.13.
SIG Big Data
During the 1.13 release cycle, SIG Big Data has been focused on community engagements relating to 3rd-party project integrations with Kubernetes. There have been no impacts on the 1.13 release.
SIG CLI
Over the course of 1.13 release SIG CLI mostly focused on stabilizing the items we’ve been working on over the past releases such as server-side printing and its support in kubectl, as well as finishing kubectl diff which is based on server-side dry-run feature. We’ve continued separating kubectl code to prepare for extraction out of main repository. Finally, thanks to the awesome support and feedback from community we’ve managed to promote the new plugin mechanism to Beta.
SIG Cloud Provider
For v1.13, SIG Cloud Provider has been focused on stabilizing the common APIs and interfaces consumed by cloud providers today. This involved auditing the cloud provider APIs for anything that should be deprecated as well as adding changes where necessary. In addition, SIG Cloud Provider has begun exploratory work around having a “cloud provider” e2e test suite which can be used to test common cloud provider functionalities with resources such as nodes and load balancers.
We are also continuing our long running effort to extract all the existing cloud providers that live in k8s.io/kubernetes into their own respective repos. Along with this migration, we are slowly transitioning users to use the cloud-controller-manager for any cloud provider features instead of the kube-controller-manager.
SIG Cluster Lifecycle
For 1.13 SIG Cluster Lifecycle is pleased to announce the long awaited promotion of kubeadm to stable GA, and the promotion of kubeadm’s configuration API to v1beta1.
In this release the SIG again focused on further improving the user experience on cluster creation and also fixing a number of bugs and other assorted improvements.
Some notable changes in kubeadm since Kubernetes 1.12:
kubeadm’s configuration API is now v1beta1. The new configuration format provides improvements in - image repository management, addons configuration, and other areas. We encourage v1alpha3 users to migrate to this configuration API using kubeadm config migrate, as v1alpha3 will be removed in 1.14. The documentation for v1beta1 can be found here: https://godoc.org/k8s.io/kubernetes/cmd/kubeadm/app/apis/kubeadm/v1beta1
kubeadm has graduated kubeadm alpha phase commands to kubeadm init phase. This means that the phases of creating a control-plane node are now tightly integrated as part of the init command. Alpha features, not yet ready for GA are still kept under kubeadm alpha and we appreciate feedback on them.
kubeadm init and kubeadm init phase now have a --image-repository flag, improving support for environments with limited access to official kubernetes repository.
The DynamicKubeletConfig and SelfHosting functionality was moved outside of kubeadm init and feature gates and is now exposed under kubeadm alpha.
Kubeadm init phase certs now support the --csr-only option, simplifying custom CA creation.
kubeadm join --experimental-control-plane now automatically adds a new etcd member for local etcd mode, further simplifying required tasks for HA clusters setup.
Improvements were made to kubeadm reset related to cleaning etcd and notifying the user about the state of iptables.
kubeadm commands now print warnings if input YAML documents contain unknown or duplicate fields.
kubeadm now properly recognizes Docker 18.09.0 and newer, but still treats 18.06 as the default supported version.
kubeadm now automatically sets the --pod-infra-container-image flag when starting the kubelet.
SIG IBM Cloud
The IBM Cloud SIG was focused on defining its charter and working towards moving its cloud provider code to an external repository with a goal to have this work done by the end of Kubernetes 1.14 release cycle. In the SIG meetings, we also made sure to share updates on the latest Kubernetes developments in the IBM Cloud like the availability of Kubernetes v1.12.2 in the IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service (IKS). The SIG updates were provided in the Kubernetes community weekly call and at the KubeCon China 2018.
SIG Multicluster
Moving Federation v2 from Alpha towards Beta has been the focus of our effort over the past quarter. To this end we engaged with end users, and successfully enlisted additional contributors from companies including IBM, Amadeus, Cisco and others. Federation v2 provides a suite of decoupled API’s and re-usable components for building multi-cluster control planes. We plan to start releasing Beta components in late 2018. In addition, more minor updates were made to our cluster-registry and multi-cluster ingress sub-projects.
SIG Network
For 1.13, the areas of focus were in IPv6, DNS improvements and some smaller items:
CoreDNS is now the default cluster DNS passing all of the scale/resource usage tests
Node-local DNS cache feature is available in Alpha. This feature deploys a lightweight DNS caching Daemonset that avoids the conntrack and converts queries from UDP to more reliable TCP.
PodReady++ feature now has kubectl CLI support.
Progress was made towards finalizing the IPv6 dual stack support KEP and support for topological routing of services.
SIG Node
SIG Node focused on stability and performance improvements in the 1.13 release. A new alpha feature is introduced to improve the mechanism that nodes heartbeat back to the control plane. The NodeLease feature results in the node using a Lease resource in the kube-node-lease namespace that is renewed periodically. The NodeStatus that was used previously to heartbeat back to the control plane is only updated when it changes. This reduces load on the control plane for large clusters. The Kubelet plugin registration mechanism, which enables automatic discovery of external plugins (including CSI and device plugins) has been promoted to stable in this release (introduced as alpha in 1.11 and promoted to beta in 1.12).
SIG Openstack
The major theme for the SIG OpenStack release is the work-in-progress for removing the in-tree provider. This work, being done in conjunction with SIG Cloud Provider, is focusing on moving internal APIs that the OpenStack (and other providers) depends upon to staging to guarantee API stability. This work also included abstracting the in-tree Cinder API and refactoring code to the external Cinder provider to remove additional Cinder volume provider code.
Additional work was also done to implement an OpenStack driver for the Cluster API effort lead by SIG Cluster Lifecycle. For the external Cloud-Provider-OpenStack code, the SIG largely focused on bug fixes and updates to match K8s 1.13 development.
SIG Scalability
SIG Scalability has mostly focused on stability and deflaking our tests, investing into framework for writing scalability tests (ClusterLoader v2) with a goal to migrate all tests to it by the end of 2018 and on the work towards extending definition of Kubernetes scalability by providing more/better user-friendly SLIs/SLOs.
SIG Scheduling
SIG Scheduling has mostly focused on stability in 1.13 and has postponed some of the major features to the next versions. There are still two notable changes: 1. TaintBasedEviction is moved to Beta and will be enabled by default. With this feature enabled, condition taints are automatically added to the nodes and pods can add tolerations for them if needed. 2. Pod critical annotation is deprecated. Pods should use pod priority instead of the annotation.
It is worth noting again that kube-scheduler will use apiVersion kubescheduler.config.k8s.io/v1alpha1 instead of componentconfig/v1alpha1 in its configuration files in 1.13.
SIG Service Catalog
The Service Plan Defaults feature is still under active development.
We continue to improve the UX for the svcat CLI, specifically filling in gaps for the new Namespaced Service Broker feature.
SIG Storage
Over the last year, SIG Storage has been focused on adding support for the Container Storage Interface (CSI) to Kubernetes. The specification recently moved to 1.0, and on the heels of this achievement, Kubernetes v1.13 moves CSI support for PersistentVolumes to GA.
With CSI the Kubernetes volume layer becomes truly extensible, allowing third party storage developers to write drivers making their storage systems available in Kubernetes without having to touch the core code.
CSI was first introduction as alpha in Kubernetes v1.9 and moved to beta in Kubernetes v1.10.
You can find a list of sample and production drivers in the CSI Documentation.
SIG Storage also moves support for Block Volumes to beta (introduced as alpha in v1.9) and support for Topology Aware Volume Scheduling to stable (introduced as alpha in v1.9 and promoted to beta in 1.10).
SIG UI
The migration to the newest version of Angular is still under active development as it is most important thing on the roadmap at the moment. We are getting closer to the new release. We continue fixing bugs and adding other improvements.
SIG VMWare
Major focus for SIG VMware for this release is the work on moving internal APIs that the vSphere provider depends upon to staging to guarantee API stability. This work is being done in conjunction with SIG Cloud Provider and includes the creation of a brand new vsphere-csi plugin to replace the current volume functionalities in-tree.
Additional work was also done to implement a vSphere provider for the Cluster API effort lead by SIG Cluster Lifecycle. For the out-of-tree vSphere cloud provider, the SIG largely focused on bug fixes and updates to match K8s 1.13 development.
SIG Windows
SIG Windows focused on improving reliability for Windows and Kubernetes support
New Features
kubelet: When node lease feature is enabled, kubelet reports node status to api server only if there is some change or it didn't report over last report interval. (#69753, @wangzhen127)
vSphereVolume implements Raw Block Volume Support (#68761, @fanzhangio)
CRD supports multi-version Schema, Subresources and AdditionalPrintColumns (NOTE that CRDs created prior to 1.13 populated the top-level additionalPrinterColumns field by default. To apply an updated that changes to per-version additionalPrinterColumns, the top-level additionalPrinterColumns field must be explicitly set to null). (#70211, @roycaihw)
New addon in addon manager that automatically installs CSI CRDs if CSIDriverRegistry or CSINodeInfo feature gates are true. (#70193, @saad-ali)
Delegated authorization can now allow unrestricted access for system:masters like the main kube-apiserver (#70671, @deads2k)
Added dns capabilities for Windows CNI plugins: (#67435, @feiskyer)
kube-apiserver: --audit-webhook-version and --audit-log-version now default to audit.k8s.io/v1 if unspecified (#70476, @charrywanganthony)
kubeadm: timeoutForControlPlane is introduced as part of the API Server config, that controls the timeout for the wait for control plane to be up. Default value is 4 minutes. (#70480, @rosti)
--api-audiences now defaults to the --service-account-issuer if the issuer is provided but the API audience is not. (#70308, @mikedanese)
Added support for projected volume in describe function (#70158, @WanLinghao)
kubeadm now automatically creates a new stacked etcd member when joining a new control plane node (does not applies to external etcd) (#69486, @fabriziopandini)
Display the usage of ephemeral-storage when using kubectl describe node (#70268, @Pingan2017)
Added functionality to enable br_netfilter and ip_forward for debian packages to improve kubeadm support for CRI runtime besides Docker. (#70152, @ashwanikhemani)
Added regions ap-northeast-3 and eu-west-3 to the list of well known AWS regions. (#70252, @nckturner)
kubeadm: Implemented preflight check to ensure that number of CPUs (#70048, @bart0sh)
CoreDNS is now the default DNS server in kube-up deployments. (#69883, @chrisohaver)
Opt out of chowning and chmoding from kubectl cp. (#69573, @bjhaid)
Failed to provision volume with StorageClass "azurefile-premium": failed to create share andy-mg1121-dynamic-pvc-1a7b2813-d1b7-11e8-9e96-000d3a03e16b in account f7228f99bcde411e8ba4900: failed to create file share, err: storage: service returned error: StatusCode=400, ErrorCode=InvalidHeaderValue, ErrorMessage=The value for one of the HTTP headers is not in the correct format. (#69718, @andyzhangx)
TaintBasedEvictions feature is promoted to beta. (#69824, @Huang-Wei)

Added env variables to control CPU requests of kube-controller-manager and kube-scheduler. (#68823, @loburm)
PodSecurityPolicy objects now support a MayRunAs rule for fsGroup and supplementalGroups options. This allows specifying ranges of allowed GIDs for pods/containers without forcing a default GID the way MustRunAs does. This means that a container to which such a policy applies to won't use any fsGroup/supplementalGroup GID if not explicitly specified, yet a specified GID must still fall in the GID range according to the policy. (#65135, @stlaz)
Upgrade Stackdriver Logging Agent addon image to 0.6-1.6.0-1 to use Fluentd v1.2. This provides nanoseconds timestamp granularity for logs. (#70954, @qingling128)

TokenReview now supports audience validation of tokens with audiences other than the kube-apiserver. (#62692, @mikedanese)
StatefulSet is supported in kubectl autoscale command (#71103, @Pingan2017)
Kubernetes v1.13 moves support for Container Storage Interface to GA. As part of this move Kubernetes now supports CSI v1.0.0 and deprecates support for CSI 0.3 and older releases. Older CSI drivers must be updated to CSI 1.0 and moved to the new kubelet plugin registration directory in order to work with Kubernetes 1.15+. (#71020, @saad-ali)
Added option to create CSRs instead of certificates for kubeadm init phase certs and kubeadm alpha certs renew (#70809, @liztio)

Added DynamicAuditing feature which allows for the configuration of audit webhooks through the use of an AuditSink API object. (#67257, @pbarker)
The kube-apiserver's healthz now takes in an optional query parameter which allows you to disable health checks from causing healthz failures. (#70676, @logicalhan)
Introduced support for running a nodelocal dns cache. It is disabled by default, can be enabled by setting KUBE_ENABLE_NODELOCAL_DNS=true (#70555, @prameshj)
Added readiness gates in extended output for pods (#70775, @freehan)
Added Ready column and improve human-readable output of Deployments and StatefulSets (#70466, @Pingan2017)
Added kubelet_container_log_size_bytes metric representing the log file size of a container. (#70749, @brancz)
NodeLifecycleController: When node lease feature is enabled, node lease will be deleted when the corresponding node is deleted. (#70034, @wangzhen127)
GCERegionalPersistentDisk feature is GA now! (#70716, @jingxu97)
Added secure port 10259 to the kube-scheduler (enabled by default) and deprecate old insecure port 10251. Without further flags self-signed certs are created on startup in memory. (#69663, @sttts)
Release Notes From SIGs
SIG API Machinery
The OwnerReferencesPermissionEnforcement admission plugin now checks authorization for the correct scope (namespaced or cluster-scoped) of the owner resource type. Previously, it always checked permissions at the same scope as the child resource. (#70389, @caesarxuchao)
OpenAPI spec now correctly marks delete request's body parameter as optional (#70032, @iamneha)
The rules for incrementing metadata.generation of custom resources changed: (#69059, @caesarxuchao)
If the custom resource participates the spec/status convention, the metadata.generation of the CR increments when there is any change, except for the changes to the metadata or the changes to the status.
If the custom resource does not participate the spec/status convention, the metadata.generation of the CR increments when there is any change to the CR, except for changes to the metadata.
A custom resource is considered to participate the spec/status convention if and only if the "CustomResourceSubresources" feature gate is turned on and the CRD has .spec.subresources.status={}.
Fixed patch/update operations on multi-version custom resources (#70087, @liggitt)
Reduced memory utilization of admission webhook metrics by removing resource related labels. (#69895, @jpbetz)
Kubelet can now parse PEM file containing both TLS certificate and key in arbitrary order. Previously key was always required to be first. (#69536, @awly)

The updated behavior is consistent with all other operations that require transforming data from storage such as watch and get. (#69399, @mikedanese)
SIG Auth
API Server can be configured to reject requests that cannot be audit-logged. (#65763, @x13n)

Added dynamic audit configuration api (#67547, @pbarker)
Added ability to control primary GID of containers through Pod Spec and PodSecurityPolicy (#67802, @krmayankk)
kube-apiserver: the NodeRestriction admission plugin now prevents kubelets from modifying Node labels prefixed with node-restriction.kubernetes.io/. The node-restriction.kubernetes.io/ label prefix is reserved for cluster administrators to use for labeling Node objects to target workloads to nodes in a way that kubelets cannot modify or spoof. (#68267, @liggitt)
service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-internal now supports true and false values, previously it only supported non-empty strings (#69436, @mcrute)

Fixed dry-run output in kubectl apply --prune (#69344, @zegl)
The kubectl wait command must handle when a watch returns an error vs closing by printing out the error and retrying the watch. (#69389, @smarterclayton)
kubectl: support multiple arguments for cordon/uncordon and drain (#68655, @goodluckbot)

kubelets are no longer allowed to delete their own Node API object. Prior to 1.11, in rare circumstances related to cloudprovider node ID changes, kubelets would attempt to delete/recreate their Node object at startup. Kubelets older than 1.11 are not supported running against a v1.13+ API server. If an unsupported legacy kubelet encounters this situation, a cluster admin can remove the Node object: (#71021, @liggitt)
Kubernetes v1.13 moves support for Container Storage Interface to GA. As part of this move Kubernetes now supports CSI v1.0.0 and drops support for CSI 0.3 and older releases. Older CSI drivers must be updated to CSI 1.0 in order to work with Kubernetes 1.13+. (#71020, @saad-ali)

kubelet: it is now deprecated to use the --node-labels flag to set kubernetes.io/ and k8s.io/-prefixed labels other than the following labels:
kubernetes.io/hostname
kubernetes.io/instance-type
kubernetes.io/os
kubernetes.io/arch
beta.kubernetes.io/instance-type
beta.kubernetes.io/os
beta.kubernetes.io/arch
failure-domain.kubernetes.io/zone
failure-domain.kubernetes.io/region
failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/zone
failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/region
[*.]kubelet.kubernetes.io/*
[*.]node.kubernetes.io/*
Setting other kubernetes.io/- and k8s.io/-prefixed labels using the --node-labels flag will produce a warning in v1.13, and be disallowed in v1.15. Setting labels that are not prefixed with kubernetes.io/ or k8s.io/ is still permitted.

apiservice availability related to networking glitches are corrected faster (#68678, @deads2k)
extract volume attachment status checking operation as a common function when attaching a CSI volume (#68931, @mlmhl)
PodSecurityPolicy objects now support a MayRunAs rule for fsGroup and supplementalGroups options. This allows specifying ranges of allowed GIDs for pods/containers without forcing a default GID the way MustRunAs does. This means that a container to which such a policy applies to won't use any fsGroup/supplementalGroup GID if not explicitly specified, yet a specified GID must still fall in the GID range according to the policy. (#65135, @stlaz)
Images for cloud-controller-manager, kube-apiserver, kube-controller-manager, and kube-scheduler now contain a minimal /etc/nsswitch.conf and should respect /etc/hosts for lookups (#69238, @BenTheElder)
