Zorluk: ZorS3 Reliability and Replication

A SysOps Administrator is configuring Amazon S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) between a source bucket and a destination bucket using the AWS CLI. The administrator has already created an IAM role (`arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/S3ReplicationRole`) with a trust policy allowing `s3.amazonaws.com` to assume it, and a permissions policy allowing replication actions. Both buckets have versioning enabled.

However, when the administrator runs the `aws s3api put-bucket-replication` command to apply the configuration, the command fails with the following error:

`An error occurred (AccessDenied) when calling the PutBucketReplication operation: Access Denied`

An inspection of the administrator's IAM policy shows full permissions to S3 (`s3:*`). Which of the following is the root cause of this error?

  1. A
    Versioning has not been enabled on the destination S3 bucket, causing S3 to deny the replication configuration request.
  2. B
    The trust policy of the S3 replication IAM role does not list the administrator's IAM user as a trusted principal.
  3. C
    The administrator's IAM policy lacks the `sts:AssumeRole` permission for the S3 replication role.
  4. The administrator's IAM policy does not grant the `iam:PassRole` permission for the S3 replication role.Cevap

Cevap

The administrator's IAM policy does not grant the `iam:PassRole` permission for the S3 replication role.
To configure S3 replication, the administrator must pass the replication IAM role to the S3 service. This requires the `iam:PassRole` permission in the administrator's IAM policy. Without this permission, S3 cannot verify that the administrator is authorized to delegate these permissions, resulting in an `AccessDenied` error during the configuration attempt.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the error message and current configurations.
The API call fails with AccessDenied on the PutBucketReplication operation, despite the administrator having s3:* permissions.
This indicates that the operation requires permissions outside of the S3 service actions.
2
Identify the IAM permissions required to pass a service role to S3.
When configuring a service like S3 replication that assumes a role, the IAM principal setting up the replication must be allowed to pass that role to the service principal.
The iam:PassRole action is used to authorize a user to pass an IAM role to an AWS service.
3
Verify if the administrator has the iam:PassRole permission.
The administrator has s3:* permissions but does not have the iam:PassRole permission in their IAM policy.
S3 denies the request because the administrator is attempting to associate a role they do not have permission to pass.
