> 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-XSS-Protection|https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-XSS-Protection] header in a default configuration of the management too.
> Benefit is slightly improved security for customers using Web Console management.
> Viable value variants are one of the following two:
> {code}
> X-XSS-Protection: 1
> X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
> {code}
> Current header provided:
> {code}
> curl -v http://localhost:9990/console/index.html
> ...
> < HTTP/1.1 200 OK
> < Connection: keep-alive
> < Last-Modified: Wed, 29 May 2019 11:09:49 GMT
