Meta Discourse small logo image broken in default light themes

AI-generated summary

The Meta Discourse small logo image is broken in default light themes, including Default, Material Design, and Graceful, but only on desktop. Alteras reported the issue, providing screenshots and a code snippet, and outlined steps for reproduction. The problem seems to be related to an “Access Denied” message when accessing the logo image URL directly. hello-smile6 was unable to reproduce the issue using Chromium, but could reproduce it using curl. NateDhaliwal also experienced the issue while logged out and using Meta Branded Light mode.

The small site logo is broken on several light themes (Default, Material Design, Graceful). Only occurs in desktop.

When attempting to directly access the URL for the image, it is returning an “Access Denied” message.

Steps for reproduction:

  1. Open Discourse Meta in desktop view
  2. Step theme to any light theme (I’ve found Default, Graceful, and Material Design have this issue)
  3. Open any topic and scroll down until the page header minimizes the logo.
