Usage

This middleware is enabled globally by default. You can customize it both globally and per route like following:

export default defineNuxtConfig({  // Global  security: {    xssValidator: {      // options    }  }  // Per Route  routeRules: {    '/my-secret-route': {      security: {        xssValidator: {          // options        }      }    }  }})

You can also disable the middleware globally or per route by setting xssValidator: false.
