I am not sure whether the dependency #1559 needs to be merged together

[dgrisonnet]

Yes ideally we should bump all the deps before cutting a new release

#1522 looks to be useful fix

[dgrisonnet]

The issue behind #1522 seems to be related to kubelet CSRs rather than metrics-server, but I don't have the bandwidth to really look into it

Hi @slashpai
Could you explain why we need to update Go with v1.23 instead of v1.22?

Note that, Kubernetes v1.31 is using v1.22, and is not ready for Go v1.23. Kuberentes made some changes to adopt Go v1.23, see kubernetes/kubernetes#127271 (comment) for more details.

So, I suggest rollback to Go v1.22 if there is no specific reason for v1.23.
