# Security Headers — nginx/xamxam.conf
|
|
|
|
## Headers in use (main server block — all pages)
|
|
|
|
| Header | Value | Purpose |
|
|
|--------|-------|---------|
|
|
| `Strict-Transport-Security` | `max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload;` | HSTS — forces HTTPS |
|
|
| `Content-Security-Policy` | `default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; frame-ancestors 'none';` | Restrict resource origins; block embedding (public pages) |
|
|
| `X-Frame-Options` | `DENY` | Prevent clickjacking |
|
|
| `X-Content-Type-Options` | `nosniff` | Prevent MIME-type sniffing |
|
|
| `Referrer-Policy` | `strict-origin-when-cross-origin` | Limit referrer leakage |
|
|
| `Permissions-Policy` | `geolocation=(), microphone=(), camera=()` | Disable unused browser APIs |
|
|
| `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy` | `same-origin` | Isolates browsing context |
|
|
| `Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy` | `same-origin` | Controls cross-origin resource sharing |
|
|
|
|
## Headers in use (`/admin/` location block — inherited from main + overrides)
|
|
|
|
| Header | Value | Purpose |
|
|
|--------|-------|---------|
|
|
| `Content-Security-Policy` | `default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; frame-ancestors 'none';` | Restrict resource origins; allows inline scripts for OverType editor |
|
|
| `X-Robots-Tag` | `noindex, nofollow` | Prevent search-engine indexing of admin |
|
|
|
|
These were previously declared in `public/admin/.htaccess` as Apache
|
|
`mod_headers` directives, which nginx silently ignores. They are now
|
|
properly configured in `nginx/xamxam.conf`.
|
|
enforced directly; see `HTACCESS_TO_NGINX.md` for the full migration log.
|
|
|
|
## Intentionally omitted headers
|
|
|
|
### `X-XSS-Protection`
|
|
|
|
This header was **removed** (was `"1; mode=block"`).
|
|
|
|
**Why:** `X-XSS-Protection` is deprecated and removed from all modern browsers
|
|
(Chrome 78+, Firefox never implemented it, Edge dropped it). Worse, the
|
|
`mode=block` behaviour can be [actively exploited](https://portswigger.net/daily-swig/xss-protection-header-is-no-longer-supported-in-any-major-browser)
|
|
to expose response bodies that would otherwise be blocked. Sending it provides
|
|
no protection and may introduce risk.
|
|
|
|
**Correct mitigation:** a proper `Content-Security-Policy` header (now done for
|
|
both `/admin/` and public pages; embed routes use `frame-ancestors 'self'`).
