AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2026-06-04 · Documentation low

File: cli/latest/reference/ec2-instance-connect/open-tunnel.md

Summary

Updated AWS CLI version references from 2.34.57 to 2.34.61. Clarified that --private-ip-address supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

Security assessment

Version updates are routine maintenance. Adding IPv6 support clarification improves documentation accuracy but doesn't address security vulnerabilities or introduce security features.
