AWS odb documentation change

Service: odb · 2025-07-04 · Documentation low

File: odb/latest/UserGuide/odb-manpol-updates.md

Summary

Removed preview release disclaimer and updated service-linked role permissions documentation with additional granular permissions (VPC Transit Gateways, EC2 attachments, EventBridge operations) and updated dates

Security assessment

The changes document expanded IAM permissions for a service-linked role but do not indicate remediation of a security vulnerability. While IAM permissions are security-adjacent, there is no evidence this addresses an existing security issue. The updates appear to reflect normal service capability expansion.
