Security

Overview

Nuxt Security is a module that automatically configures your app to follow OWASP security patterns and principles. It focuses on enhancing the security of your Nuxt 3 app by implementing key features such as security response headers, request size and rate limiters, XSS validation, CORS support, and more.

Features

• Security response headers: Automatically adds security response headers to your app, including Content Security Policy (CSP) for server-side generated (SSG) apps.
• Request Size & Rate Limiters: Limits the size and rate of incoming requests to prevent potential attacks.
• Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Validation: Provides validation mechanisms to detect and prevent cross-site scripting attacks.
• Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support: Enables Cross-Origin Resource Sharing to control access to resources on your app from other domains.
• Hide X-Powered-By header and remove console loggers: Hides the X-Powered-By header and removes any console loggers, reducing the attack surface of your app.
• [Optional] Allowed HTTP Methods, Basic Auth, CSRF: Allows you to configure additional security measures such as specifying allowed HTTP methods, enabling basic authentication, and implementing CSRF protection.
