Helmet is an npm package that includes middleware to handle and filter out malicious request headers (exploiting XSS vulnerabilities or clickjacking, for example). You can utilize Helmet's default configuration or customize it based on your needs following the instructions provided here.

By default, NuxtSecurity will set security response headers to match the values recommended by OWASP and a popular Express.js middleware called helmet.

Utilize security headers and middleware to add another layer of security to your Node.js application. Tools like Helmet.js can help you set secure HTTP headers, while middleware can assist in filtering and sanitizing user inputs.

Helmet helps “sanitise” the input, which might not have come from the UI directly. Mongoose is what is known as an Object Document Modelling (ODM), which defines a structure (schema) for the stored data, making it easier to manage in Express. These additions have been omitted from our example stack purely to simplify the tutorial and focus on the fundamental tiers and interfaces.

If you can repro the issue with a minimal tsconfig, with nothing but an import statement then it's probably something the maintainers of helmet would like to see. There's also this (recent) issue I saw looking at their queue -- maybe related? https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet/issues/424 ...

You can learn more about each header and how to configure them in the Helmet documentation.

These days I only use middleware if it's global and has no outputs. Helmet comes to mind.

NOTE: Never store sensitive information about a client in the payload as the JWT is just encoded and not encrypted. You can paste the JWT I gave as an example above in this cool site which basically allows you to see in decoded. JSON Web Tokens - jwt.io

Although they did not make it into production, I experimented with the RabbitMQ message broker, Python (Django, Flask), Kubernetes + minikube, JWT, and NGINX. This was a hobby project, but I intended to learn about microservices along the way.

JSON Web Token (JWT) creation to extend user authentication to server-side functions

The (probably) most famous web resource about JWT - https://jwt.io - provides such a definition of JSON Web Tokens:

If you want to play with JWT and put these concepts into practice, you can use jwt.ioDebugger to decode, verify, and generate JWTs.

In this context, JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) play a crucial role.

Json Web Token (JWT): Even though it is more like an industry standard, we will use JWTs for stateless authentication in this article. If you want to learn more, you can refer to the official documentation.
