AWS AWSEC2 documentation change

Service: AWSEC2 · 2026-03-19 · Documentation low

File: AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/nvidia-gaming-driver.md

Summary

Updated NVIDIA gaming driver version ranges and added new certificate download commands for newer driver versions across multiple operating systems

Security assessment

The change updates version ranges and adds new certificate download commands (GridSwCert_2026_03_02.cert). While certificate updates can have security implications, there's no evidence in the diff that this addresses a specific security vulnerability. It appears to be routine documentation maintenance for new driver versions and certificates.
