Connection refused when accessing Bodhi updates from AWS IP

[jftuduri]

Hello,

We are experiencing connectivity issues when trying to fetch updates from Bodhi.

We have a script that runs once a day to retrieve updates, filtering for type=security. For example:

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/?type=security&rows_per_page=200&page=23

This worked fine for a while, but in the last few days (around a week ago) we started receiving connection refused errors from our AWS instance’s IP address. We paused the script for several days to rule out rate limiting, but the issue persists, we are still unable to connect from that IP. Access works correctly from other IPs (e.g. our local machines).

Questions:

• Could our AWS IP have been blocked (e.g. by firewall or abuse protection)? If so, is there a process to request removal and guidelines to avoid triggering this in the future?

• Our goal is to maintain a regularly updated local copy of all update metadata. Is there a way to fetch all updates in bulk (e.g. a consolidated file), or alternatively to fetch only updates modified since a given date?

Thanks for your help!
