AWS cli: RDS: clarify encryption field in reboot-db-cluster output

Service: cli · 2026-10-21 · Documentation medium

File: cli/latest/reference/rds/reboot-db-cluster.md · Type: encryption

Summary

CLI reference version bump 2.38.2→2.38.3 and an expanded DBCluster 'Encrypted' field description covering AWS owned vs customer managed keys and the StorageEncryptionType indicator.

Security assessment

Only documentation changed: the DBCluster encryption field now distinguishes key ownership, while noting that data can still be encrypted at rest when the value is false. Encryption transparency documentation, not a remediation of a specific weakness.

Evidence

>>> Specifies whether the DB cluster is encrypted with an Amazon Web Services managed key or a customer managed key.
