AWS AWSCloudFormation documentation change

File: AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/aws-properties-cloudwatch-logalarm-scheduledqueryconfiguration.md

Summary

Added detailed property descriptions for scheduled query configuration including query syntax, log groups, and IAM role requirements

Security assessment

Changes provide implementation details for CloudWatch scheduled queries without addressing security vulnerabilities. The IAM role mention is standard for AWS resource permissions, not a security-specific feature.
