AWS waf documentation change
Summary
Added references to 'protection pack' alongside existing 'web ACL' terminology throughout the document and introduced a new console experience section
Security assessment
The changes primarily update terminology to include 'protection pack' as an additional configuration option alongside web ACLs, which appears to be a new organizational feature rather than addressing a specific security vulnerability. There is no mention of security patches, vulnerabilities, or incident response in the diff. The updates focus on UI navigation and configuration procedures without introducing new security controls or warnings.
