AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2026-03-07 · Documentation low

File: cli/latest/reference/gamelift/update-matchmaking-configuration.md

Summary

Updated CLI version from 2.34.1 to 2.34.4 and added documentation about game property key limitations and SearchGameSessions API constraints

Security assessment

The changes mention operational limitations (500 property key limit) and search index constraints, but there is no evidence of addressing security vulnerabilities or introducing security controls. The warnings about periods in keys and search limits appear to be functional limitations rather than security issues.
