GHSA-j965-2qgj-vjmq: JavaScript SDK v2 users should add validation to the region parameter value in or migrate to v3

CVSSv3.1 Rating: 3.7 (LOW) Summary This notification is related to the use of specific values for the region input field when calling AWS services.

Impact Customer applications could be configured to improperly route AWS API calls to non-existent or non-AWS hosts. While the SDK itself is functioning as designed, we recommend customers migrate to AWS SDK for JavaScript v3 for continued support and enhanced security features. Impacted versions: All versions of AWS SDK for JavaScript v2 Patches No security patch is required, this i...
