I really hope this is not the whole of your code otherwise you have a nice open redirect vulnerability on your hand and possibly a private bucket leak if you don't check which bucket you are signing the request for. Never for the love of security take an URL as input from a user without doing a whole lot of checks and sanitization. And don't expect your language parser to be perfect, Orange Tsai demonstrated they can get confused [1].

I left off the method that generates the signed URL. It limits the bucket to a specific one per env and blocks some protected folders and file types. I left that out in case someone used it to find an opening to attack.
