This module works with Nuxt 3 only

  • Request Size & Rate Limiters
  • Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Validation
  • Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support
  • Hide X-Powered-By header and remove console loggers utils
  • [Optional] Allowed HTTP Methods, Basic Auth, CSRF

Usage

Install the module:

npm i -D nuxt-security@rcyarn add -D nuxt-security@rcpnpm add -D nuxt-security@rc

Add the module in the modules array in nuxt.config.ts:

export default defineNuxtConfig({  modules: ["nuxt-security"],})

And that's it! The module will now register route rules and server middlewares globally so that your application will be more secured.
