Cluster API v1.13.8

security~***!!!

Cluster API v1.13.8 was released with 16 changes, including three security-labeled items: a bump of Go to 1.26.9 and ignored golang.org/x/net advisories, a typo fix in the trivy DB mirror, and ignored x/net trivy findings. Fixes cover bootstrap script execution via /bin/bash for noexec /etc mounts, cluster-name labeling when a BeforeClusterCreate hook blocks, and the ControlPlaneInitialized reason when the control plane does not exist. The release also blocks exec/auth providers and file-based credentials in ClusterCache kubeconfigs.

What changes for platform teams

Platform teams running Cluster API should check whether the ClusterCache kubeconfig restriction affects existing credential setups, since exec/auth providers and file-based credentials are now blocked. The security items are dependency bumps and advisory ignores rather than fixes to the tool's own code, so they do not by themselves require urgent action.
