+### Features and enhancements [fleet-elastic-agent-9.1.0-features-enhancements]
+
+**Elastic Agent**
+
+* Adds a new configuration setting, `agent.upgrade.rollback.window`. [#8065]({{agent-pull}}8065) [#6881]({{agent-issue}}6881)
+
+  The value of the `agent.upgrade.rollback.window` setting determines the period after upgrading
+  Elastic Agent when a rollback to the previous version can be triggered. This is an optional
+  setting, with a default value of `168h` (7 days). The value can be any string that is parseable
+  by <https://pkg.go.dev/time#ParseDuration>.
+* Removes resource/k8s processor and uses k8sattributes processor for service attributes. [#8599]({{agent-pull}}8599)
+
+  This PR removes the `resource/k8s` processor in honour of the k8sattributes processor that
+  provides native support for the service attributes:
+  <https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/tree/v0.127.0/processor/k8sattributesprocessor#configuring-recommended-resource-attributes>
+  This change is aligned with the respective semantic conventions' guidance:

+* Makes pbkdf2 settings validation FIPS compliant. [#4542]({{fleet-server-pull}}4542)
