Summary

Removed Kubernetes 1.25 platform version documentation and added RSS subscription link

Security assessment

The removal of Kubernetes 1.25 documentation appears to be routine version deprecation rather than addressing a specific security vulnerability. While platform versions often include security fixes, the change itself doesn't reference any specific vulnerabilities. The RSS addition is a documentation tracking feature.
