AWS S3 Bucket Policy - Only Allow Certain File Types In Folder


I have a specific folder in my bucket that I would like to restrict to only certain file types. I currently have the following:

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Id": "Policy1464968545158",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "Stmt1464968483619",
            "Effect": "Deny",
            "Principal": "*",
            "Action": "s3:PutObject",
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:s3:::my-bucket/my-folder/*"
            ]
            "Condition": {
                "StringNotEquals": {
                  "s3:prefix": ".txt",
                  "s3:prefix": ".doc"
                }
            },
        }
    ]
}

I need something to replace s3:prefix so that instead of looking at the beginning of the file and path, the system is looking at the end. I tried s3:suffix, but this isn't a valid property.

Is there a S3 property that does a wildcard search at the end of the file name so I can whitelist only certain file types for my folder?


Solution

  • You should be able to define it in the Resource using wildcard. Use Effect: Allow if you want folder to be restricted to .txt and .doc only.

    {
        "Version": "2012-10-17",
        "Id": "Policy1464968545158",
        "Statement": [
            {
                "Sid": "Stmt1464968483619",
                "Effect": "Allow",
                "Principal": "*",
                "Action": "s3:PutObject",
                "Resource": [
                    "arn:aws:s3:::my-bucket/my-folder/*.doc",
                    "arn:aws:s3:::my-bucket/my-folder/*.txt"
                ]
            }
        ]
    }
