Summary
Closes #726

The middleware was extracting the API version from the URL path without validating its format, allowing malformed or path-traversal strings to bypass version-based routing logic.

Changes

  • src/middleware.ts Added regex validation (/^v\d+$/) on the extracted version segment before use. Malformed version strings now return a 400 Bad Request response.
  • src/middleware/__tests__/apiVersioning.test.ts Added tests covering valid versions (v1, v2, v10) and malformed inputs (vABC, ../v1, v/, v1.2, v1;drop, 123).
  • docs/API_VERSIONING_POLICY.md Documented supported version format, active/planned versions, and rejection examples.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Non-numeric or path-traversal version strings are rejected with 400
  • Valid versions (v1, v2) route correctly and set X-Api-Version header
  • Middleware tests cover malformed version inputs
