AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2026-07-01 · Documentation low

File: cli/latest/reference/supportauthz/get-support-permit.md

Summary

Renamed and repurposed from Panorama's describe-package-import-job to supportauthz's get-support-permit. The new command retrieves details of a support permit by its ARN or name, including authorized actions, resources, validity conditions, and signing key information.

Security assessment

The change introduces documentation for a new authorization feature (support permits) that controls support access through time-bound permissions, resource restrictions, and cryptographic signing. While this is a security feature, there's no evidence it addresses a specific vulnerability. The documentation adds security controls but doesn't reference any security incident.
