Service: AWSMechTurk · 2025-10-25 · Security-related high

Removed SNS policy example containing SecureTransport condition and AWS account restrictions

Security assessment

The removed policy enforced secure transport (HTTPS) and source account validation. Removing this example could lead to less secure configurations if users don't implement equivalent protections.
