AWS glue high security documentation change

Service: glue · 2025-05-13 · Security-related high

File: glue/latest/dg/aws-glue-api-common.md

Summary

Updated multiple regular expression patterns for input validation, including adding KMS ARN validation and reordering existing patterns. Added new custom string pattern #62.

Security assessment

The change updates pattern #42 to validate KMS ARNs, which is critical for encryption configuration. Incorrect validation could lead to security misconfigurations. This directly addresses potential security vulnerabilities by enforcing proper ARN formats for encryption keys.
