AWS code-library documentation change

Service: code-library · 2025-06-28 · Documentation medium

File: code-library/latest/ug/iam_example_iam_UploadSigningCertificate_section.md

Summary

Added PowerShell V5 example for uploading X.509 signing certificates with certificate handling details

Security assessment

The change provides operational documentation for cryptographic identity management (a security feature) but does not indicate fixes for existing vulnerabilities. The PEM handling guidance improves security practices but isn't tied to a specific security incident.

+**Example 1: This example uploads a new X.509 signing certificate and associates it with the IAM user named`Bob`. The file containing the certificate body is PEM encoded. The `CertificateBody` parameter requires the actual contents of the certificate file rather than the file name. You must use the `-Raw` switch parameter to successfully process the file.**
