AWS::WAFRegional::SizeConstraintSet - Amazon CloudFormation
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

AWS::WAFRegional::SizeConstraintSet

Note

This is Amazon WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see Amazon WAF Classic in the developer guide.

For the latest version of Amazon WAF , use the Amazon WAFV2 API and see the Amazon WAF Developer Guide. With the latest version, Amazon WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.

A complex type that contains SizeConstraint objects, which specify the parts of web requests that you want Amazon WAF to inspect the size of. If a SizeConstraintSet contains more than one SizeConstraint object, a request only needs to match one constraint to be considered a match.

Syntax

To declare this entity in your Amazon CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

JSON

{ "Type" : "AWS::WAFRegional::SizeConstraintSet", "Properties" : { "Name" : String, "SizeConstraints" : [ SizeConstraint, ... ] } }

YAML

Type: AWS::WAFRegional::SizeConstraintSet Properties: Name: String SizeConstraints: - SizeConstraint

Properties

Name

The name, if any, of the SizeConstraintSet.

Required: Yes

Type: String

Pattern: .*\S.*

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 128

Update requires: Replacement

SizeConstraints

The size constraint and the part of the web request to check.

Required: No

Type: Array of SizeConstraint

Update requires: No interruption

Return values

Ref

When you pass the logical ID of this resource to the intrinsic Ref function, Ref returns the resource physical ID, such as 1234a1a-a1b1-12a1-abcd-a123b123456.

For more information about using the Ref function, see Ref.

Fn::GetAtt

Examples

Define a Size Constraint

The following example checks that the body of an HTTP request equals 4096 bytes.

JSON

"MySizeConstraint": { "Type": "AWS::WAFRegional::SizeConstraintSet", "Properties": { "Name": "SizeConstraints", "SizeConstraints": [ { "ComparisonOperator": "EQ", "FieldToMatch": { "Type": "BODY" }, "Size": "4096", "TextTransformation": "NONE" } ] } }

YAML

MySizeConstraint: Type: "AWS::WAFRegional::SizeConstraintSet" Properties: Name: "SizeConstraints" SizeConstraints: - ComparisonOperator: "EQ" FieldToMatch: Type: "BODY" Size: "4096" TextTransformation: "NONE"

Associate a SizeConstraintSet with a Web ACL Rule

The following example associates the MySizeConstraint object with a web ACL rule.

JSON

"SizeConstraintRule" : { "Type": "AWS::WAFRegional::Rule", "Properties": { "Name": "SizeConstraintRule", "MetricName" : "SizeConstraintRule", "Predicates": [ { "DataId" : { "Ref" : "MySizeConstraint" }, "Negated" : false, "Type" : "SizeConstraint" } ] } }

YAML

SizeConstraintRule: Type: "AWS::WAFRegional::Rule" Properties: Name: "SizeConstraintRule" MetricName: "SizeConstraintRule" Predicates: - DataId: Ref: "MySizeConstraint" Negated: false Type: "SizeConstraint"

Create a Web ACL

The following example associates the SizeConstraintRule rule with a web ACL. The web ACL blocks all requests except for requests with a body size equal to 4096 bytes.

JSON

"MyWebACL": { "Type": "AWS::WAFRegional::WebACL", "Properties": { "Name": "Web ACL to allow requests with a specific size", "DefaultAction": { "Type": "BLOCK" }, "MetricName" : "SizeConstraintWebACL", "Rules": [ { "Action" : { "Type" : "ALLOW" }, "Priority" : 1, "RuleId" : { "Ref" : "SizeConstraintRule" } } ] } }

YAML

MyWebACL: Type: "AWS::WAFRegional::WebACL" Properties: Name: "Web ACL to allow requests with a specific size" DefaultAction: Type: "BLOCK" MetricName: "SizeConstraintWebACL" Rules: - Action: Type: "ALLOW" Priority: 1 RuleId: Ref: "SizeConstraintRule"
