AWS mwaa documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation links to include double slashes in URLs and added new section about using console credentials as temporary credentials for programmatic access.
Security assessment
The changes primarily fix URL formatting and add guidance about using temporary credentials instead of long-term credentials. While this promotes security best practices (reducing risks of credential leaks), there's no evidence of addressing a specific security vulnerability. The added documentation emphasizes secure authentication methods.
