AWS AWSCloudFormation documentation change

Service: AWSCloudFormation · 2025-08-19 · Documentation low

File: AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/git-sync-prereq.md

Summary

Added JSON policy examples and formatting improvements for Git sync prerequisites documentation.

Security assessment

While the changes improve documentation of IAM policies (security-related components), there is no evidence of addressing a specific security vulnerability. The additions provide clearer examples of security best practices for Git sync configuration but do not indicate remediation of a security flaw.
