Research direction

Start by tracing the image-size handling that returns a redirect and inspect how signed URL query parameters such as Policy, Signature, and Key-Pair-Id are preserved or handled. The work is complete when oversized images requested with signed URLs either redirect successfully or return the direct image without breaking access.

Description

bug wontfix

Describe the bug

When the image is too big, a redirection is returned instead of the direct image. That does not work if the origin request was a signed url with query parameters like Policy / Signature / Key-Pair-Id

Expected behavior

Logic of redirection should work or not used if cannot
