## Affected

- shlinkio shlink: through 5.1.6

## Description

Shlink through 5.1.6 fails to enforce API key role restrictions when issuing Mercure subscription tokens, allowing restricted keys to subscribe to all topics. Attackers with author-only or domain-only keys can access the mercure-info endpoint to receive visit data including referrer, user agent, geolocation, and full short URL objects for URLs outside their authorization boundary.
