AWS cli medium security documentation change

Service: cli · 2026-05-19 · Security-related medium

File: cli/latest/reference/ec2/get-ipam-pool-allocations.md

Summary

Added documentation for tags in IPAM pool allocations including key/value constraints

Security assessment

The change explicitly documents security constraints for tags (case-sensitivity, character limits, and prohibition of 'aws:' prefix) which helps prevent privilege escalation through tag impersonation.
