AWS waf documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation to include protection pack deletion procedures alongside web ACL deletion. Added new console experience notice and detailed steps for disassociating resources from protection packs.
Security assessment
The changes introduce documentation for managing protection packs but do not address security vulnerabilities or weaknesses. The updates focus on UI changes and expanded resource management procedures without security-specific context.
