AWS greengrass high security documentation change

Service: greengrass · 2025-10-10 · Security-related high

File: greengrass/v1/developerguide/secrets.md

Summary

Updated end of support notice with new date (October 7th, 2026) and removed explicit statement about lack of security patches. Modified example ARNs to use specific region (us-east-1) and account ID (123456789012). Added JSON formatting markers.

Security assessment

The change removes the explicit warning that AWS IoT Greengrass V1 stopped receiving security patches after June 2023, which could mislead users about ongoing security maintenance. This impacts security posture by reducing visibility into lack of future vulnerability fixes.
