AWS AWSCloudFormation documentation change

Service: AWSCloudFormation · 2025-11-19 · Documentation low

File: AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/using-cfn-updating-stacks-direct.md

Summary

Updated console reference and changed section title from 'Change sets for nested stacks' to 'Validate stack deployments'.

Security assessment

Section title change suggests documentation reorganization but lacks explicit security context. Validation improvements are general best practices rather than security-specific guidance.
