AWS AWSCloudFormation medium security documentation change

Service: AWSCloudFormation · 2025-11-22 · Security-related medium

File: AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/aws-properties-elasticloadbalancingv2-listenerrule-jwtvalidationactionadditionalclaim.md

Summary

Added detailed documentation for JWT validation claims including claim format restrictions, reserved claim names, and value constraints

Security assessment

The changes explicitly document security constraints for JWT claim validation including reserved claims (exp, iss, nbf, iat) and format-specific value restrictions. This prevents security misconfigurations in JWT validation implementations.
