Hi,
I am running a docker file that calls on an image on our website. It is publicly available, and I can access it via a webrowser, but I believe our WAF is blocking the command. What is the best way to resolve this?

Hello,
are you blocking specific User Agents within the Htaccess Maker? How are you calling such URL? Using Wget or cURL? In that case you should pass a specific user agent, since the default ones are blocked by the Htaccess Maker.

Is there an implicit danger to removing wGet from the list of user agents. Can this protocol be used to access secure content on the site that otherwise would be unavailable (e.g. configuruation.php)? Is it possible to open a singular folder to wGet for files intended to be shared?

It's not possible to allow only a single directory to wget. Allowing the wget user agent won't make your site less secure; it's just a simple rule to annoy and block script-kiddies and most inexperienced attackers from connecting to your site.
For what is worth, you can always change the user agent reported by the wget program, it's just a command line option.
