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 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).
