Nuxt Security Module

The Nuxt Security module is a robust solution for enhancing the security posture of Nuxt 3 applications by automatically configuring HTTP headers and server middleware according to OWASP principles. It provides features such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), X-XSS-Protection, Referrer-Policy, and Permissions-Policy, alongside runtime protections like request size and rate limiters, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) validation, and Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support. The module also offers optional features like basic authentication, allowed HTTP methods control, and CSRF protection. Currently stable at version 2.5.1, `nuxt-security` maintains a rapid release cycle, with frequent hotfixes and minor versions addressing issues, introducing new features, and keeping pace with Nuxt 3 updates. Its primary differentiator is the comprehensive, opinionated, and automatic application of common security best practices without extensive manual configuration. It focuses on server-side protections and integration with Nuxt's SSR/SSG capabilities.
