Supported Headers

• CSP (Content Security Policy)
• HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security)
• Permissions-Policy
• Referrer-Policy
• X-Content-Type-Options
• X-Frame-Options

Unwanted headers

This capsule also has an option for removing any unwanted headers from the response. Update the config/twill-security-headers.php file to add any unwanted headers from the response:

'unwanted-headers' => ['X-Powered-By', 'server', 'Server'],

Installing

Supported Versions

Composer will manage this automatically for you, but these are the supported versions between Twill and this package.

Require the Composer package:

composer require area17/twill-security-headers

Publish the configuration

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="A17\TwillSecurityHeaders\ServiceProvider"

Migrate the database to create package tables

php artisan migrate

Usage

It's pretty straightforward, once installed you will have access to the menu option Twill Security Headers, which is a single page having all the supported headers that you can enable, disable and edit the properties to sent with the response.

Menu

If you are clearing the Twill menu in order to create a new one yourself, you will need to add it manually:

TwillNavigation::clear();

...

TwillNavigation::addLink(
    NavigationLink::make()
        ->forModule('TwillSecurityHeaders')
        ->title('Security headers')
);

CSP config

Creating CSP policies usually takes time and it's hard to write them manually. You can make use if Report URI, a great tool that allows you to paste your current policy, edit and generate a new string to be pasted on the package.

Disabling

This package is enabled and injects itself automatically. To disable it you just need to add to .env:

TWILL_SECURITY_HEADERS_ENABLED=false
