v0.32.0

Compare Source

This release contains critical dependency updates, bug fixes, and defaults to Kubernetes 1.36.1.

Breaking Changes

• The default node image is now kindest/node:v1.36.1@​sha256:3489c7674813ba5d8b1a9977baea8a6e553784dab7b84759d1014dbd78f7ebd5
• New node images requiring upgrading kind to kind load ...: Due to a containerd upgrade, you must upgrade kind to this release or newer to use kind load ... with the newly published node images. As always, we cannot gurantee full compatibility of node images between kind releases. You can use the digests from previous releases, upgrade kind, or build your own node-images.
• kubeadm v1beta4 config format is now used for Kubernetes 1.36.0+ If you are using versioned config patches, you must update to target v1beta4. Unversioned patches kind will attempt to convert as needed (more below in New Features). This change is required for Kubernetes 1.37+ which drops kubeadm v1beta3 config.
• Adoption of Envoy for Load Balancing in multi-control-plane node clusters: HAProxy has been replaced by Envoy (docker.io/envoyproxy/envoy:v1.36.2) as the load balancer in multi-control-plane (HA) clusters. If you rely on custom HAProxy loadbalancer configurations or images, please note that Envoy is now used.
• cgroup v1 warning: A warning is now printed if cgroup v1 is detected on the host. Kubernetes has deprecated support for cgroup v1, and at some point in the future KIND releases / node-images will also drop support for cgroup v1.

New Features

• kubeadm v1beta4 configuration support: KIND now uses the v1beta4 config format for Kubernetes v1.36.0+ while maintaining v1beta3 for v1.23.0 up to v1.35.x, and v1beta2 for older versions.
• Custom Merging & Version-Awareness for Kubeadm Config Patches:
  • KIND now automatically translates old-style map-based extraArgs / kubeletExtraArgs patches to the list-based v1beta4 format when targeting v1beta4 configs.
  • Config patches now append to extraArgs / kubeletExtraArgs / certSANs reliably. To overwrite or make other more precise patching, use json6902 patches.
• Support for containerd config v4 format: Enabled support for containerd's config v4 format in kind load and snapshotter parsing, which is required for newer containerd versions.
• Building Node Images from CI Artifacts: Added support to build node images from Kubernetes CI artifacts (resolving endpoints like https://dl.k8s.io/ci/latest.txt or CI build prefixes).
• Support for containerd version-aware containerd config patching: Like kubeadmConfigPatches, containerd config patching is now aware of version and if specified in patches will only apply patches that match the containerd config being used.
• Assorted dependency updates.

• v1.33.12: kindest/node:v1.33.12@​sha256:3f5c8443c620245e4d355cfe09e96a91ead32ceaa569d3f1ca9edf0cb2fe2ff4

NOTE: You must use the @sha256 digest to guarantee an image built for this release, until such a time as we switch to a different tagging scheme. Even then we will highly encourage digest pinning for security and reproducibility reasons.

Fixes

• Fix permission error when creating pods with hostUsers: false (Kubernetes 1.36+).
• Handle registry ports correctly in image normalization logic (e.g., registry running on ports like localhost:5000/...).
• Handle empty port mapping listen addresses correctly (defaults to wildcard address).
• Skip /dev/mapper mount on rootless Docker.
• Assorted documentation fixes and improvements.

NOTE: These node images support amd64 and arm64, both of our supported platforms. You must use the same platform as your host, for more context see #​2718
