Hello.
You can reset the bucket policy for an S3 bucket if you are signed in as the root user of your AWS account.
Try resetting your bucket policy using the steps in the following document:
https://repost.aws/knowledge-center/s3-accidentally-denied-access
To regain access and solve the "explicit deny" issue, you need to use the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) or an AWS SDK to modify the bucket policy directly. The AWS Management Console may not work if the root account has been denied access to the S3 bucket's properties.
Use the AWS CLI: You can use the aws s3api put-bucket-policy command to update the bucket policy. First, you'll need a JSON file containing the new, corrected policy that removes the problematic deny statement.
aws s3api put-bucket-policy --bucket YOUR_BUCKET_NAME --policy file://policy.json
Replace YOUR_BUCKET_NAME with your bucket's name and policy.json with the name of your file.
Use an AWS SDK: If you're more comfortable with a programming language, you can use an AWS SDK (like Boto3 for Python) to programmatically update the bucket policy.
Once the bucket policy is updated and the explicit deny statement is removed, all previously granted permissions should be restored.
