In fact, To pass a role (and its permissions) to an AWS service, a user must have permissions to pass the role to the service.

To allow a user to pass a role to an AWS service, you must grant the PassRole permission to the user's IAM user, role, or group.
Cause of AWS AccessDeniedException – I Can't Assume a Role error:
There are two possible causes for this AccessDenied error: the user in your development account doesn't have permission to call sts:AssumeRole, or the trust relationship in the production account is not configured correctly.

AWS EC2 docker permission denied
This article covers methods to resolve AWS EC2 docker permission denied error.
To give docker user enough permission, do the following:
You can try adding prod-user to group Docker:
$ sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER
usermod is a command that modifies the system configuration for a specific user.
-a is a shortcut for --append: It means append the group to the list of groups the user belongs to.
-G is a shortcut for --groups: It tells usermod that the next argument is a group.
docker is the group we want to add $USER to.
$USER is the user that we want to modify.
If this alone doesn't resolve the issue then try below :
$ chmod 664 /var/run/docker.sock ## First try this.
$ chmod 777 /var/run/docker.sock ## Then this. Not recommended though due to full permission.
