Summary

Removed Kubernetes version 1.24 documentation including its platform versions and admission controllers list

Security assessment

The change removes documentation for an older Kubernetes version but doesn't directly address a security vulnerability. While removed versions mention security fixes, the change itself is version deprecation rather than a security patch.
