AWS AmazonS3 documentation change

Service: AmazonS3 · 2025-08-22 · Documentation low

File: AmazonS3/latest/userguide/list-buckets.md

Summary

Replaced detailed Java SDK code examples with a reference link to API documentation

Security assessment

The change removes implementation-specific code samples and replaces them with a general API reference link. There is no evidence of security vulnerability fixes, security configuration changes, or new security-related documentation. This appears to be a routine documentation simplification/restructuring.
