AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2026-07-13 · Documentation low

File: cli/latest/reference/dms/describe-instance-profiles.md

Summary

Updated AWS CLI version references from 2.35.19 to 2.35.21 and added new 'Examples' section demonstrating describe-instance-profiles command with security configurations

Security assessment

The change adds an example showing security features including KMS encryption ('KmsKeyArn'), network isolation ('PubliclyAccessible: false'), and VPC security groups. Documents security best practices but doesn't address a specific vulnerability.

+### Note
+
+To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the [Getting started guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-getting-started.html) in the _AWS CLI User Guide_ for more information.
+
+Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See [Using quotation marks with strings](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-usage-parameters-quoting-strings.html) in the _AWS CLI User Guide_ .
