Wires the S3 gateway up to the standalone IAM service so identity policies, not just bucket policies and ACLs, are enforced on the S3 data plane. The gateway authenticates SigV4 requests by calling new private derive-signing-key and resolve-identity endpoints on the IAM service instead of holding secrets itself, and evaluates identity policy through the same PolicyEvaluator path added to auth.VerifyAccess, combined with the bucket policy using explicit-deny-wins precedence. The private endpoints are served over their own mTLS listener (new iamapi/private package, genmtlscerts.sh to generate test material, and client-cert support in internal/netutil), separate from the public IAM API. As part of this the vendored aws/signer/v4 package is deleted and replaced by a pure-Go SigV4 implementation in internal/sigv4auth, which now reads canonical request data directly off the fiber.Ctx instead of reconstructing an http.Request, and is shared by both the S3 request-signing verification and the new private-endpoint signing.
DeleteObjects moves from an all-or-nothing authorization check to true partial success: VerifyObjectsAccess evaluates every object in a batch independently against both the identity policy and any object lock, so a denial or a locked object only removes that key from the batch instead of failing the whole request. It also batches the identity-policy round trip and the bucket-policy fetch once per request rather than once per object, and separates plain deletes from versioned ones since a versioned delete needs s3:DeleteObjectVersion rather than s3:DeleteObject. Object lock handling got a few correctness fixes alongside this: a bypass is now modeled as BypassNone/BypassRequested/BypassOverwrite rather than a single bool, because root's blanket ability to override a GOVERNANCE retention should only apply when the client actually asked to bypass it (DeleteObject/DeleteObjects/PutObjectRetention), not when the gateway is silently replacing a locked object via an overwrite, which needs the permission from everyone including root. Retention changes are now correctly classified as an extension (allowed under plain s3:PutObjectRetention) versus a weakening (date or mode change, which needs the bypass permission), and a COMPLIANCE lock can never be weakened by anyone regardless of permissions, matching AWS. Separately, VerifyObjectCopyAccess had a readonly-mode gap: it returned early for root/admin before ever calling VerifyAccess, so the readonly check inside VerifyAccess never ran for them on CopyObject; access checks are now ordered so the readonly gate always applies before any root/admin bypass, for copy as well as every other write path.
Bucket policies also gained Condition block support, via a new shared internal/condition package moved out of the IAM policy package since both bucket and identity policies share the same evaluation semantics. It implements the full AWS operator set — String{Equals,NotEquals,EqualsIgnoreCase,NotEqualsIgnoreCase,Like,NotLike}, Numeric{Equals,NotEquals,LessThan,LessThanEquals,GreaterThan,GreaterThanEquals}, Date{Equals,NotEquals,LessThan,LessThanEquals,GreaterThan,GreaterThanEquals}, Bool, BinaryEquals, Arn{Equals,Like,NotEquals,NotLike}, IpAddress/NotIpAddress, and Null — along with the ForAllValues/ForAnyValue set qualifiers and the IfExists modifier. A new requestConditionContext builds the per-request keys a bucket policy's Condition block can reference — aws:SourceIp, aws:SecureTransport, aws:CurrentTime, aws:EpochTime, aws:UserAgent, aws:Referer, s3:prefix, s3:delimiter, s3:max-keys, s3:x-amz-acl, s3:VersionId — following AWS's own per-action rules for which keys a given S3 operation actually populates. Identity-derived keys such as aws:PrincipalArn and aws:username are deliberately left unwired here, since the gateway has no way to know them; the standalone IAM service fills those in itself when it evaluates an identity policy.
Also added new integration test suites for S3-side IAM: s3_iam_access_control.go and s3_iam_session_access_control.go cover identity-policy enforcement and session-credential requests against real S3 operations, alongside expanded OIDC/web-identity coverage and a new runoidctests.sh runner wired into the OIDC GitHub Actions workflow.
Distinguish public bucket policy no-match from explicit deny during anonymous access checks. This preserves ACL fallback only for requests that are not allowed by policy, while ensuring a matching Deny statement short-circuits authorization and returns AccessDenied even when a public ACL would otherwise grant access.

Refactor global S3 error handling around structured error types and centralized XML response generation.
All S3 errors now share the common APIError base for the fields every error has: Code, HTTP status code, and Message. Non-traditional errors that need AWS-compatible XML fields now have dedicated typed errors in the s3err package. Each typed error implements the shared S3Error behavior so controllers and middleware can handle errors consistently while still emitting error-specific XML fields.
Add a dedicated InvalidArgumentError type because InvalidArgument is used widely across request validation, auth, copy source handling, object lock validation, multipart validation, and header parsing. The new InvalidArgument path uses explicit InvalidArgErrorCode constants with predefined descriptions and ArgumentName values, keeping call sites readable while preserving the correct InvalidArgument XML shape and optional ArgumentValue.
New structured errors added in s3err:
- `AccessForbiddenError`: Method, ResourceType
- `BadDigestError`: CalculatedDigest, ExpectedDigest
- `BucketError`: BucketName
- `ContentSHA256MismatchError`: ClientComputedContentSHA256, S3ComputedContentSHA256
- `EntityTooLargeError`: ProposedSize, MaxSizeAllowed
- `EntityTooSmallError`: ProposedSize, MinSizeAllowed
- `ExpiredPresignedURLError`: ServerTime, XAmzExpires, Expires
- `InvalidAccessKeyIdError`: AWSAccessKeyId
- `InvalidArgumentError`: Description, ArgumentName, ArgumentValue
- `InvalidChunkSizeError`: Chunk, BadChunkSize
- `InvalidDigestError`: ContentMD5
- `InvalidLocationConstraintError`: LocationConstraint
- `InvalidPartError`: UploadId, PartNumber, ETag
- `InvalidRangeError`: RangeRequested, ActualObjectSize
- `InvalidTagError`: TagKey, TagValue
- `KeyTooLongError`: Size, MaxSizeAllowed
- `MetadataTooLargeError`: Size, MaxSizeAllowed
- `MethodNotAllowedError`: Method, ResourceType, AllowedMethods
- `NoSuchUploadError`: UploadId
- `NoSuchVersionError`: Key, VersionId
- `NotImplementedError`: Header, AdditionalMessage
- `PreconditionFailedError`: Condition
- `RequestTimeTooSkewedError`: RequestTime, ServerTime, MaxAllowedSkewMilliseconds
- `SignatureDoesNotMatchError`: AWSAccessKeyId, StringToSign, SignatureProvided, StringToSignBytes, CanonicalRequest, CanonicalRequestBytes
Fix CompleteMultipartUpload validation in the Azure backend so missing or empty `ETag` values return the appropriate S3 error instead of allowing a gateway panic.
Fix presigned authentication expiration validation to compare server time in `UTC`, matching the `UTC` timestamp used by presigned URL signing.
Add request ID and host ID support across S3 requests. Each request now receives AWS S3-like identifiers, returned in response headers as `x-amz-request-id` and `x-amz-id-2` and included in all XML error responses as RequestId and HostId. The generated ID structure is designed to resemble AWS S3 request IDs and host IDs.
The request signature calculation/validation for streaming uploads was previously delayed until the request body was fully read, both for Authorization header authentication and presigned URLs.
Now, the signature is validated immediately in the authorization middlewares without reading the request body, since the signature calculation itself does not depend on the request body. Instead, only the `x-amz-content-sha256` SHA-256 hash calculation is delayed.
Closes#1847
This PR introduces a global optional gateway CLI flag `--disable-acl` (`VGW_DISABLE_ACL`) to disable ACL handling. When this flag is enabled, the gateway ignores all ACL-related headers, particularly in `CreateBucket`, `PutObject`, `CopyObject`, and `CreateMultipartUpload`.
`GetBucketAcl` behavior is unchanged simply returning the bucket ACL config.
There's no change in object ACL actions(`PutObjectACL`, `GetObjectACL`). They return a`NotImplemented` error as before.
A new custom error is added for PutBucketAcl calls when ACLs are disabled at the gateway level. Its HTTP status code and error code match AWS S3’s behavior, with only a slightly different error message.
In the access-control checker, ACL evaluation is fully bypassed. If ACLs are disabled only the bucket owner gets access to the bucket and all grantee checks are ignored.
The PR also includes minor refactoring of the S3 API server and router. The growing list of parameters passed to the router’s Init method has been consolidated into fields within the router struct, initialized during router construction. Parameters not needed by the S3 server are no longer stored in the server configuration and are instead forwarded directly to the router.
Fixes#1869
Generally, when object ownership is not explicitly specified during bucket creation, it defaults to `BucketOwnerEnforced`. With `BucketOwnerEnforced`, ACLs are disabled and any attempt to set one results in an `InvalidBucketAclWithObjectOwnership` error.
However, there is an edge case. When the `private` canned ACL is used during bucket creation—which is effectively the default ACL for all buckets—`BucketOwnerEnforced` is still permitted. Moreover, if no explicit object ownership is specified together with the `private` canned ACL, the ownership defaults to `BucketOwnerPreferred`.
This fix also resolves the issue with rclone bucket creation, since rclone sends `x-amz-acl: private` by default:
```
rclone mkdir vgw:test
```
Closes#1731
Implements the admin `CreateBucket` (`PATCH /:bucket/create`) endpoint and CLI command, which create a new bucket with the provided owner access key ID. The endpoint internally calls the S3 `CreateBucket` API, storing the new owner information in the request context under the `bucket-owner` key. This value is then retrieved by the S3 API layer and the backends.
The endpoint uses the custom `x-vgw-owner` HTTP header to pass the bucket owner access key ID.
The admin CLI command mirrors `aws s3api create-bucket` and supports all flags implemented by the gateway (for example, `--create-bucket-configuration`, `--acl`, `--object-ownership`, etc.).
Fixes#1379
Adds validation for bucket canned ACLs in `CreateBucket` and `PutBucketAcl`. The gateway supports three values: `private`, `public-read`, and `public-read-write`. All other values (including `authenticated-read`, which is not supported) are considered invalid and result in an `InvalidArgument` error with an empty error message.
Add helper util auth.UpdateBucketACLOwner() that sets new
default ACL based on new owner and removes old bucket policy.
The ChangeBucketOwner() remains in the backend.Backend
interface in case there is ever a backend that needs to manage
ownership in some other way than with bucket ACLs. The arguments
are changing to clarify the updated owner. This will break any
plugins implementing the old interface. They should use the new
auth.UpdateBucketACLOwner() or implement the corresponding
change specific for the backend.
This implementation introduces **public buckets**, which are accessible without signature-based authentication.
There are two ways to grant public access to a bucket:
* **Bucket ACLs**
* **Bucket Policies**
Only `Get` and `List` operations are permitted on public buckets. All **write operations** require authentication, regardless of whether public access is granted through an ACL or a policy.
The implementation includes an `AuthorizePublicBucketAccess` middleware, which checks if public access has been granted to the bucket. If so, authentication middlewares are skipped. For unauthenticated requests, appropriate errors are returned based on the specific S3 action.

We were trying to parse a non existing acl and returning an
internal server error due to invalid json acl data.
If the bucket acl does not exist, return a default acl with the
root account as the owner.
This fixes#1060, but does not address the invalid acl format
from s3cmd reported in #963.
Bucket ACLs are now disabled by default the same as AWS.
By default the object ownership is BucketOwnerEnforced
which means that bucket ACLs are disabled. If one attempts
to set bucket ACL the following error is returned both in
the gateway and on AWS:
ErrAclNotSupported: {
Code: "AccessControlListNotSupported",
Description: "The bucket does not allow ACLs",
HTTPStatusCode: http.StatusBadRequest,
},
ACls can be enabled with PutBucketOwnershipControls
Changed bucket canned ACL translation
New backend interface methods:
PutBucketOwnershipControls
GetBucketOwnershipControls
DeleteBucketOwnershipControls
Added these to metrics
Added support to enable object lock on bucket creation in posix and azure
backends.
Implemented the logic to add object legal hold and retention on object creation
in azure and posix backends.
Added the functionality for HeadObject to return object lock related headers.
Added integration tests for these features.
This moves the internal iam service from the posix backend so
that we can start implementing new iam services right in the auth
module.
The internal iam service has same behavior as before, but now
must be enabled with the --iam-dir cli option.
New single user service is the default when no other iam service
is selected. This just runs the gateway in single user mode with
just the root account.
* feat: Added test an integration test case for acl actions(get, put), fixed PutBucketAcl actions bugs, fixed iam bugs on getting and creating user accounts
* fix: Fixed acl unit tests
* fix: Fixed cli path in exec command in acl integration test
* fix: fixed account creation bug
