Securing ExpressJS

tl;dr

  1. Don't run as root.
  2. For sessions, set httpOnly (and secure to true if running over SSL) when setting cookies.
  3. Use the Helmet for secure headers: https://github.com/evilpacket/helmet
  4. Enable csrf for preventing Cross-Site Request Forgery: http://expressjs.com/api.html#csrf
  5. Don't use the deprecated bodyParser() and only use multipart explicitly. To avoid multiparts vulnerability to 'temp file' bloat, use the defer property and pipe() the multipart upload stream to the intended destination.
