AWS greengrass documentation change

Service: greengrass · 2025-10-10 · Documentation low

File: greengrass/v1/developerguide/dev-tst-prereqs.md

Summary

Updated end-of-support notice from June 2023 to October 2026 and replaced wildcard account numbers in IAM role ARNs with a specific account ID (123456789012). Added JSON formatting markers.

Security assessment

The change updates deprecation timelines and example account IDs but does not address any specific security vulnerability. The IAM ARN changes appear to be example standardization rather than security hardening.
