### Announcements

* Kubernetes 1.28 is GA and 1.25 will not be deprecated until the end of January 2024. This means that 4 versions will be GA during this time.
* Kubernetes 1.28 is GA.
* KEDA addon is GA.
* Kubernetes 1.25 is being deprecated at the end of January 2024 and support will transition to our [platform support policy](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/aks/supported-kubernetes-versions?tabs=azure-cli#platform-support-policy).
* No new clusters can be created with [Azure AD Integration (legacy)](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/aks/azure-ad-integration-cli). Existing AKS clusters with Azure Active Directory integration will keep working. All Azure AD Integration (legacy) AKS clusters will be migrated to [AKS-managed Azure AD](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/aks/managed-azure-ad) automatically starting from December 1st, 2023. We recommend updating your cluster with AKS-managed Azure AD before December 1st, 2023. This way you can manage the API server downtime during non-business hours.
* Starting January 2024, due to Gatekeeper Upstream removing validation for constraint template contents at create/update time, [the Azure Policy Add-On](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/governance/policy/concepts/policy-for-kubernetes#install-azure-policy-add-on-for-aks:~:text=exception%20YAML.-,Install%20Azure%20Policy%20Add%2Don%20for%20AKS,-Before%20you%20install) will now no longer support this. The Azure Policy Add-On will report [‘InvalidConstraint/Template’ compliance reason code](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/governance/policy/how-to/determine-non-compliance#aks-resource-provider-mode-compliance-reasons) for detected errors after constraint template admission. This change does not impact [other compliance reason codes](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/governance/policy/how-to/determine-non-compliance#aks-resource-provider-mode-compliance-reasons). Customers are encouraged to continue to follow best practices when updating Azure Policy for Kubernetes definitions (i.e. [Gator CLI](https://open-policy-agent.github.io/gatekeeper/website/docs/gator/).
* [Windows containerd v1.7](https://github.com/Azure/AKS/issues/3975) will be the default container runtime for k8s v1.28+ on AKS Windows nodes. Windows Host Process (HPC) containers is GA in Windows containerd v1.7 and it has some [breaking changes](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/tree/master/keps/sig-windows/1981-windows-privileged-container-support#container-mounts).
* Starting Kubernetes 1.29, the default cgroups implementation on Azure Linux AKS nodes will be cgroupsv2. Older versions of Java, .NET and NodeJS do not support memory querying v2 memory constraints and this will lead to out of memory (OOM) issues for workloads. Please test your applications for cgroupsv2 compliance, and read the [FAQ](https://learn.microsoft.com/troubleshoot/azure/azure-kubernetes/aks-increased-memory-usage-cgroup-v2) for cgroupsv2.
* AKS sent out an advisory regarding [CVE-2023-29332](https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2023-29332) on September 13, 2023, which impacts AKS agent nodes. Recommended mitigation is to upgrade AKS cluster and AKS node image. If impacted clusters are not upgraded, AKS will apply mitigation on customer's next cluster update operation including node OS updates and node rolling upgrades, which may cause workload disruption.
* [AKS Trusted Access](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/trusted-access-feature) is now GA and enabled by default.
* Starting January 2024, due to Gatekeeper Upstream removing validation for constraint template contents at create/update time, the Azure Policy Add-On will now no longer support this. The Azure Policy Add-On will report `InvalidConstraint/Template` compliance reason code for detected errors after constraint template admission.

* Bug Fixes
* Under some conditions it was possible to set `max_surge=0` which may interfere with upgrades. Now `max_surge` must be > 0. See [Customize node surge upgrade](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/operator-best-practices-run-at-scale#cluster-upgrade-considerations-and-best-practices) for more information about the setting.
* In some occasions, PUT operations on managedClusters or agentPools see long latency in the operations. This fixes one of a few scenarios.
* PATCH operations were allowed on managedClusters in a non-terminal provisioningState. This could cause an eTag mismatch and inconsistent results or failures. PATCH operations will not be block for managedClusters in a non-terminal provisioningState.
