AWS controltower documentation change

Service: controltower · 2025-05-25 · Documentation low

File: controltower/latest/userguide/2025-all.md

Summary

Updated IPv6 support documentation to reflect Control Catalog instead of AWS Control Tower

Security assessment

IPv6 support through dual-stack endpoints is a security-relevant feature (improved network security posture), but the change itself is a documentation transfer between services rather than addressing a specific vulnerability.
