Object Storage Service:0003-00000503

Last Updated:Jul 21, 2023

Problem description

The request is denied by the hotlink protection configuration of the bucket.

Causes

The value of the Referer header in the request is not in the Referer whitelist that is configured for the bucket.

Examples

For example, you want to access a bucket that has the following Referer configuration:

<RefererConfiguration>
  <AllowEmptyReferer>false</AllowEmptyReferer>
  <RefererList>
        <Referer>http://*.aliyuncs.com</Referer>
  </RefererList>
  <RefererBlacklist>
        <Referer>http://abc.aliyuncs.com</Referer>
  </RefererBlacklist>
</RefererConfiguration

You initiate the following request:

GET /test.txt HTTP/1.1
Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2022 08:48:18 GMT
Host: BucketName.oss-example-endpoint.aliyuncs.com
Referer: http://test.com

Your request is denied because the value of the Referer header in the request is not in the Referer whitelist specified in the RefererList configuration of the bucket.

Solutions

Include an allowed Referer in the request, as shown in the following sample request:

GET /test.txt HTTP/1.1
Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2022 08:48:18 GMT
Host: BucketName.oss-example-endpoint.aliyuncs.com
Referer: http://test.aliyuncs.com

If you are the owner of a bucket, you can modify the Referer configuration of the bucket to allow access from specified Referers. For more information, see Hotlink protection.
