Summary

klog's legacy behavior silently drops the --stderrthreshold flag when --logtostderr is enabled (the default). This means users who set --stderrthreshold=ERROR expecting to reduce stderr noise still get every log line on stderr.

This PR opts into the fixed behavior introduced in kubernetes/klog#432 by setting:

_ = flag.Set("legacy_stderr_threshold_behavior", "false")
_ = flag.Set("stderrthreshold", "INFO")

after klog.InitFlags() and before flag.Parse(), so that --stderrthreshold is actually honored.

The klog/v2 dependency is bumped from v2.130.1 to v2.140.0 (minimum version that includes the fix).

References:

Changes

  • cmd/web-console-validator/main.go: add stderrthreshold opt-in after klog.InitFlags()
  • go.mod / go.sum: bump k8s.io/klog/v2 to v2.140.0

Thank you so much for this! I am going to approve it, but could you please rebase on main first instead of merging main into your PR branch? Thanks!
