The current version of openshift/coredns vendors Kubernetes 1.28 packages. OpenShift 4.17 is based on Kubernetes 1.30. We also want to bump CoreDNS to v1.11.3 contain the most recent updates and fixes. We met on Mar 27, 2024, and reviewed the updates to CoreDNS 1.11.3, notes are here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xMMi5_lZRzclqe8pI2P9U6JlcggfSRvrEDj7cOfMDa0

Using old Kubernetes API and client packages brings risk of API compatibility issues. We also want to stay up-to-date with CoreDNS fixes and improvements.
