AWS transfer documentation change
Summary
Added placeholder instructions for AWS account ID and IAM role name in policy example
Security assessment
The change improves documentation clarity for IAM policy configuration but does not address a specific security vulnerability. It helps prevent misconfiguration of role permissions, which is a security best practice but not tied to a disclosed security issue.
