AWS vm-import documentation change
Summary
Removed a sentence about using access keys, secret access keys, or AWS STS for signing API requests.
Security assessment
The removed content was related to general authentication mechanisms but does not indicate a specific security vulnerability being addressed. The removal might simplify documentation or relocate the information elsewhere without evidence of a security incident.
