Google Compute Engine customers running “yum” or “dnf” commands in Red Hat instances experienced 403 forbidden responses when attempting to install packages. The root cause was that the Red Hat Update infrastructure software update [1] combined with an invalid configuration caused a new build of the software to be unusable and that build was mistakenly released to prod via automation.
