Implemented standard security headers in the HTTP transport layer to improve the application's security posture.

Security Enhancements:

  • X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff: Prevents browsers from trying to guess the MIME type, reducing the risk of drive-by download attacks.
  • X-Frame-Options: DENY: Prevents the application from being embedded in iframes, mitigating clickjacking attacks.
  • Content-Security-Policy: Sets default-src 'none', strictly blocking all external resources and inline scripts. This is appropriate for an API-only service and significantly reduces XSS risks.
  • Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS): Enforces HTTPS usage by browsers for 1 year (max-age=31536000), including subdomains. This is applied conditionally: only when the request is secure (HTTPS) or the environment is production, preventing issues during local development.

Verification:

  • Added a temporary test file src/security-headers.test.ts which verified the presence and correctness of all headers.
  • Verified that existing functionality (CORS, API endpoints) remains unaffected by running the full test suite (npm test).
  • Confirmed that HSTS is not applied on non-secure local connections, ensuring developer experience is not degraded.
