I'm trying to set up my local dev env for a Java Spring Boot configured with gradle which needs a working AWS CLI environment. It's important to note that there are different profiles (.aws/config) present (default not configured) which are different role switches (role_arn) with MFA (mfa_serial).
Description
At the moment I'm using Windows 10 Build 18363 ("19.09"), IntelliJ Ultimate 20.02, gradle 5.6.4.
In order to run this application I've set up a run configuration with the gradle clean bootRun task and the following env vars:
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEYAWS_ACCESS_KEY_IDAWS_REGIONAWS_DEFAULT_REGIONAWS_PROFILEAWS_DEFAULT_PROFILE
#.aws/config
[profile prod]
region=eu-central-1
output=json
role_arn=<role_arn_prod>
source_profile=site-iam
mfa_serial=<arn_iam_user_mfa_1>
[profile sit]
region=eu-central-1
output=json
role_arn=<role_arn_sit>
source_profile=site-iam
mfa_serial=<arn_iam_user_mfa_1>
[profile dev]
region=eu-central-1
output=json
role_arn=<role_arn_dev>
source_profile=site-iam
mfa_serial=<arn_iam_user_mfa_1>
[profile site-iam]
region=eu-central-1
output=json
[default]
#.aws/credentials
[default]
aws_access_key_id = <access_key_id_1>
aws_secret_access_key = <secret_access_key_1>
[site-iam]
aws_access_key_id = <access_key_id_1>
aws_secret_access_key = <secret_access_key_1>
Behaviour
The request inside of this java application is quite simple.
GetObjectRequest getObjectRequest = GetObjectRequest.builder()
.bucket(this.bucket)
.key(this.key)
.build();
String response = this
.s3Client
.getObjectAsBytes(getObjectRequest).asString(Charset.forName(StandardCharsets.UTF_8.name()));
The error below suggests that there was no role switch and / or the authentication failed (because we need to submit the TOTP in order to authenticate.

A similar behaviour is reproduciblevia the cmd
aws s3 ls
An error occurred (AccessDenied) when calling the ListBuckets operation: Access Denied
Different approaches
STS get-session-token | env var
I've obtained the session token via
aws sts get-session-token --serial <arn_iam_user_mfa_1> --token-code <TOTP> --duration-seconds 129600
as json
{
"Credentials": {
"AccessKeyId": "<access_key_id_2>",
"SecretAccessKey": "<secret_access_key_2>",
"SessionToken": "<session_token_2>",
"Expiration": "2020-08-02T22:57:12+00:00"
}
}
and set updated the following env vars to the obtained values:
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID:<access_key_id_2>AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY:<secret_access_key_2>AWS_SESSION_TOKEN:<session_token_2>AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN:<session_token_2>
but this is returning the same error

Quick and dirty .aws/config fix
After several time of debugging the default profile was changed in the following way
[default]
region=eu-central-1
output=json
role_arn=<role_arn_prod>
source_profile=site-iam
mfa_serial=<arn_iam_user_mfa_1>
which resulted in
Caused by: software.amazon.awssdk.core.exception.SdkClientException: Unable to load credentials from any of the providers in the chain AwsCredentialsProviderChain(credentialsProviders=[SystemPropertyCredentialsProvider(), EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider(), WebIdentityTokenCredentialsProvider(), ProfileCredentialsProvider(), ContainerCredentialsProvider(), InstanceProfileCredentialsProvider()]) : [SystemPropertyCredentialsProvider(): Unable to load credentials from system settings.

Setting AWS_WEB_IDENTITY_TOKEN_FILE
The AWS_WEB_IDENTITY_TOKEN_FILE env var was set to an existing token file located in ~/.aws/cli/cache via a WSL sytle path (\wsl$\...)
which leads to the same error as above even though the the env vars are present and / or updated

Debugging
There are no permission problems. The download of this specific file works with the correct role arn.
C:\Users\tunnelblick>aws s3 ls
An error occurred (AccessDenied) when calling the ListBuckets operation: Access Denied
C:\Users\tunnelblick>aws s3 ls --profile prod
Enter MFA code for <arn_iam_user_mfa_1>:
2020-02-05 09:28:41 <bucket_1>
2020-06-23 05:16:07 <bucket_2>
C:\Users\tunnelblick>aws s3 cp s3://<bucket_1>/<file>.json .
fatal error: An error occurred (403) when calling the HeadObject operation: Forbidden
C:\Users\tunnelblick>aws s3 cp s3://<bucket_1>/<file>.json . --profile prod
download: s3://<bucket_1>/<file>.json to .\<file>.json
Setting these env vars in my WSL 1 terminal and executing aws s3 ls resulted in the same Access Denied error
