AWS managedservices documentation change
Summary
Updated sentence about End of Support (EOS) operating systems to indicate they are supported only if AMS-required agents support the OS and certain conditions are true (the specific conditions are not shown in the diff).
Security assessment
The change clarifies support conditions for EOS operating systems, which are noted to have increased security risk. However, there is no evidence of a specific security vulnerability being addressed; it's a documentation clarification about support policy.
