AWS glue documentation change

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

File: glue/latest/dg/optimization-prerequisites.md

Summary

Updated multiple ARNs in IAM policy examples: replaced placeholders with us-east-1 region and 111122223333 account ID, and modified S3 bucket ARNs to use wildcards

Security assessment

Changes are example value updates and syntax corrections (wildcard usage). The S3 bucket ARN change to wildcard could potentially lead to over-permissive policies if misapplied, but this is a documentation example update without evidence of addressing a specific security vulnerability.
