Urgent Issue: AliExpress CDN Blocking Images on My Websites

Hello everyone,

I've been using the Alidropship plugin on multiple websites for years without issues. However, recently, I encountered a serious problem: all images hosted on the AliExpress CDN are no longer displaying and appear as broken images.

The error message I see is "referer ban hit", and I am attaching screenshots for reference.

About a week ago, this issue started on one of my websites. After extensive troubleshooting with my hosting provider, Cloudflare, and several developers, it became clear that the problem is caused by a domain-level block from the AliExpress CDN.

Today, another one of my websites has been affected in the same way. Given that these blocks occurred within a week of each other, it seems likely that AliExpress has made some changes to its policies or restrictions.

I have tested duplicating my websites on different domains, and everything works fine there, confirming that this is not an IP-based restriction but rather a domain-specific block.

Has anyone else encountered this issue recently? Could it be that AliExpress has implemented new limitations on image requests or changed their CDN policies?

This is an urgent matter for me as it significantly affects site performance and sales. Any insights or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
