Important
This release includes remediation for CVE-2023-32187, a potential Denial of Service attack vector on K3s servers. See https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/security/advisories/GHSA-m4hf-6vgr-75r2 for more information, including documentation on changes in behavior that harden clusters against this vulnerability. |
Critical Regression
Kubernetes v1.28 contains a critical regression (kubernetes/kubernetes#120247) that causes init containers to run at the same time as app containers following a restart of the node. This issue will be fixed in v1.28.2. We do not recommend using K3s v1.28 at this time if your application depends on init containers. |
For more details on what’s new, see the Kubernetes release notes.
