----------------------------------

             Summary: Add X-Content-Type-Options header to default management config
                 Key: WFLY-12156
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-12156
             Project: WildFly
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: Management
    Affects Versions: 16.0.0.Final
            Reporter: Jan Stourac
            Assignee: Jeff Mesnil


Even though we should probably avoid using non-standardized HTTP headers, since there is already X-FRAME-OPTIONS present in a management WFCORE-1463, I propose to consider to add also [X-Content-Type-Options|https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Content-Type-Options] header in a default configuration of the management too.

Benefit is slightly improved security for customers using Web Console management.

Current header provided:
{code}
curl -v http://localhost:9990/console/index.html
