Thanks, should be fixed per:

> <https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/43505>
>
> Prevent secure upload callbacks from replacing the store check for
> external uplo…ad actions. Presigned upload requests must return 404
> when S3 storage is disabled, even if direct S3 uploads are enabled.
> 
> Add regression coverage for this configuration.
