Access Denied to a sub-website

mooragor — Mon, 15 Apr 2024 10:50:28 GMT

I'm getting very odd 'Access Denied' messages visiting certain websites.

https://docs.reqnroll.net/latest/quickstart/index.html - gets me a 403 Access Denied message,

https://go.reqnroll.net/guide-migrating-from-specflow - gets me a 403 Access Denied message,

I can access both on my phone (not through wifi)

It seems to be an issue with plusnet networking forbidding certain things. - the message in the header seems to be 'Noncompliant Action', but there's no data on what caused it.

There is a help ticket open with the website in question, and they are struggling to understand why they are being blocked. If your network team are able to shed any light on exactly why. https://github.com/reqnroll/Reqnroll/issues/79

@mooragor I’m on a Plusnet connection.

On my iPad all your links work.

On my desktop your links are immediately blocked as unsafe by Malwarebytes.

Might be worth checking your device security packages and settings.

Interesting! I shall investigate that avenue - thank you very much!

Malwarebytes classed the web site links as riskware. This may be a false positive but it’s enough to block the site.

My company mandates 'Netscope' - similar to Malwarebytes. Temporarily disabling it does allow the website to load - have raised a ticket with our IT team to get more info. Thank you again!
