How to Resolve Manually
You can resolve with this manually by heading to the Secrets Dashboard in AWS and selecting the key you want to re-congifure.
From here, head to the top "Actions" drop down tab and select Edit Encryption Key.
This will allow you to change the encryption key used to encrypt your secret information. You will need a customer managed key (CMK) which will already exist within your AWS KMS. Simply change from the DefaultEncryptionKey as seen below and select your own key, along with deciding if you want to create a new version of your secret with the newly selected encryption key. (You are probably going to want to do this)
