AWS waf documentation change
Summary
Updated terminology from 'protection pack or web ACLs' to 'protection packs (web ACLs)' in multiple sections to clarify relationship between protection packs and web ACLs
Security assessment
Changes appear to be terminology clarification rather than addressing security vulnerabilities. No mention of vulnerabilities, exploits, or security incidents. Updates focus on consistent naming conventions.
