AWS AmazonRDS documentation change
Summary
Removed documentation for multiple future Aurora PostgreSQL versions (e.g., 16.6.3, 16.6.2, 15.10.3, etc.) that previously referenced security fixes (CVEs, rds_activity_stream issues) and corrected typos in existing release notes. Future-dated entries and associated security patch details were deleted.
Security assessment
The changes remove references to security fixes (e.g., CVEs, extension vulnerabilities) from future-dated release notes, likely correcting premature or incorrect documentation entries. However, there is no explicit evidence in the diff that these removals address active security vulnerabilities or incidents. The deletions appear to be documentation cleanup rather than direct security fixes.
