Summary

Added entry for April 29, 2026 update to AWSSecurityHubServiceRolePolicy managed policy, adding permissions for managing Security Hub CSPM service-linked configuration recorders and creating AWS Config service-linked role.

Security assessment

This change documents an update to an AWS managed policy (AWSSecurityHubServiceRolePolicy) that grants additional permissions. While it involves security-related permissions (managing configuration recorders and service-linked roles), there is no evidence in the diff that this change addresses a specific security vulnerability or incident. It appears to be a routine policy update to support new CSPM functionality.
