## edge-23.10.3

This edge release fixes issues in the proxy and Destination controller which can
result in Linkerd proxies sending traffic to stale endpoints. In addition, it
contains other bugfixes and updates dependencies to include patches for the
security advisories [CVE-2023-44487]/GHSA-qppj-fm5r-hxr3 and GHSA-c827-hfw6-qwvm.

* Fixed an issue where the Destination controller could stop processing
  changes in the endpoints of a destination, if a proxy subscribed to that
  destination stops reading service discovery updates. This issue results in
  proxies attempting to send traffic for that destination to stale endpoints
  ([#11483], fixes [#11480], [#11279], and [#10590])
* Fixed a regression introduced in stable-2.13.0 where proxies would not
  terminate unused service discovery watches, exerting backpressure on the
  Destination controller which could cause it to become stuck
  ([linkerd2-proxy#2484] and [linkerd2-proxy#2486])
* Added `INFO`-level logging to the proxy when endpoints are added or removed
  from a load balancer. These logs are enabled by default, and can be disabled
  by [setting the proxy log level][proxy-log-level] to
  `warn,linkerd=info,linkerd_proxy_balance=warn` or similar
  ([linkerd2-proxy#2486])
* Fixed a regression where the proxy rendered `grpc_status` metric labels as a
  string rather than as the numeric status code ([linkerd2-proxy#2480]; fixes
  [#11449])
* Extended `linkerd-jaeger`'s `imagePullSecrets` Helm value to also apply to
the `namespace-metadata` ServiceAccount ([#11504])
* Updated the control plane's dependency on the `golang.google.org/grpc` Go
  package to include patches for [CVE-2023-44487]/GHSA-qppj-fm5r-hxr3 ([#11496])
* Updated dependencies on `rustix` to include patches for GHSA-c827-hfw6-qwvm
  ([linkerd2-proxy#2488] and [#11512]).
