## Pre-pre requisite

## Pre-requisite for backporting any fixes

Fixes that are allowed a backport must satisfy any of the following criteria's:

- A fix must not be a feature, for example.

```

|--------------------|-----------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------|
| user               | string                                  | Identifier for owner of requested credentials          |
| maxValiditySeconds | integer (>= 900 seconds and < 365 days) | Maximum allowed expiry duration for the credentials    |

package httpapi.authz

import input

default allow = false

# Allow the root user to perform any action.
allow {
 input.owner == true
}

# All other users may do anything other than call PutObject
allow {
 input.action != "s3:PutObject"
 input.owner == false
}
EOF
```

Then load the policy via OPA's REST API.

```
curl -X PUT --data-binary @example.rego \

        "AWS4-HMAC-SHA256"
      ],
      "userid": [
        "minio"
      ],
      "username": [
        "minio"
      ],
      "versionid": [
        ""
      ]
    },
    "owner": true,
    "object": "",
    "claims": {},
    "denyOnly": false
  }
}
```

</details>

The response expected by MinIO, is a JSON body with a boolean:

```json
{

organization = "Example Inc."

# The organizational unit of the subject.
#unit = "sleeping dept."

# The state of the certificate owner.
state = "Example"

# The country of the subject. Two letter code.
country = "EX"

# The common name of the certificate owner.
cn = "Sally Certowner"

# In how many days, counting from today, this certificate will expire.
expiration_days = 365
