Summary

Fixed IAM ARN format by adding missing double colon after 'iam' service identifier

Corrects ARN syntax but does not address a specific security vulnerability. Incorrect ARN formats could lead to policy misconfigurations, but there's no evidence this was exploiting an active security issue.
