v0.3.3	cluster version ≤ v1.32	Maintained	The add-on security issues are addressed. The add-on supports a configuration switch for default injection. The DNS cache feature is injected into VCI pods by default. The issue where newly added fields in Kubernetes v1.27 and later are mistakenly deleted during the injection of Pod DNS Config is fixed.	After you upgrade the add-on, if you do not want to inject the DNS cache feature into VCI pods by default, you can use the label: dns-config-injection: disable on the pods or namespaces to disable the injection.
