A rate limit error code would be 429, 403 means blocked.
Do you have an actual and
supported ClamAV running? =>
https://docs.clamav.net/faq/faq-eol.html?highlight=support#version-support-matrix.
Currenty ClamAV suggest 1.0.9 for LTS releases or the newest one
1.4.3 for LTS.
When obsolete Versions will try to update, they will also get
blocked, you get also blocked if you are trying to refresh more
then once an hour per day. Limit is every hour in 24 hours
(blocked for the next 24 hours - "Rate Limited".
If all is save from your side, then delete all databases include
freshclam.dat and try updating freshclam again. If all not help,
give your new x-ray ID and Val will check what's on here.
hope my answer will help you.

I'm
getting blocked by the CDN for some reason.
Can I get some help unblocking this? Github issues say
this could possibly be due to Russian sanctions block
but I'm based in Australia.
