Increase in SizeRestrictions_BODY size or removing the rule all together

Terraform Providers AWS
1

In Baseline rule groups - AWS WAF, AWS Firewall Manager, and AWS Shield Advanced the SizeRestrictions_BODY rule states that it will allow only 8kb of request body.

I have used terraform to make sure that all common rule set are created in below code.

resource "aws_wafv2_web_acl" "alb_waf_acl" {
  name        = "api-alb-waf-acl-${var.usage}"
  scope       = "REGIONAL"
  description = "WAF ACL for the Data Refinery ALB"

  default_action {
    allow {}
  }

  rule {
    name     = "base-rule"
    priority = 1

    override_action {
      none {}
    }

    statement {
      managed_rule_group_statement {
        vendor_name = "AWS"
        name        = "AWSManagedRulesCommonRuleSet"
      }
    }

    visibility_config {
      cloudwatch_metrics_enabled = false
      metric_name                = "api-alb-waf-acl-base-rule-${var.usage}"
      sampled_requests_enabled   = false
    }
  }

  visibility_config {
    cloudwatch_metrics_enabled = false
    metric_name                = "api-alb-waf-acl-${var.usage}"
    sampled_requests_enabled   = false
  }

  tags = {
    Name = "api_alb_waf_acl_${var.usage}"
  }


resource "aws_wafv2_web_acl_association" "alb_waf_association" {
  resource_arn = aws_lb.alb.arn
  web_acl_arn  = aws_wafv2_web_acl.alb_waf_acl.arn

  timeouts {
    create = "10m"
  }
}

How do I change the code such that I can either increase the SizeRestrictions_BODY limit to 100mb or remove this rule all together.

Thanks in Advance!
