Summary

Added SearchCertificates API action to the AWSCertificateManagerReadOnly managed policy documentation

Security assessment

This change updates IAM policy documentation to include a new permission (SearchCertificates) in a read-only managed policy. While it relates to security documentation (IAM policies), there is no evidence of a security vulnerability being addressed. The change appears to be a routine policy update to support new API functionality.
