AWS signin: Rename 'social login' to 'third-party login' in AWS Builder ID MFA entry
Summary
In the AWS Sign-In user guide document history, the AWS Builder ID MFA changelog entry was reworded, replacing the term 'social logins' with 'third-party logins' throughout the entry (including 'third-party login credentials are compromised'). No functional or policy content changed.
Security assessment
The diff is a pure terminology rename ('social logins' → 'third-party logins') in a historical changelog entry that already described MFA for AWS Builder ID. It does not document a new security control, fix a vulnerability, or change any configuration or guidance with security impact; the security-relevant MFA wording is pre-existing and merely reworded.
