### Added

- `helmet.contentSecurityPolicy`:
  - If no `default-src` directive is supplied, an error is thrown
  - Directive lists can be any iterable, not just arrays

### Removed

- Dropped support for old Node versions. Node 10+ is now required
- `helmet.featurePolicy`. If you still need it, use the `feature-policy` package on npm.
- `helmet.hpkp`. If you still need it, use the `hpkp` package on npm.
- `helmet.noCache`. If you still need it, use the `nocache` package on npm.

  - Removed a lot of checks—you should be checking your CSP with a different tool
  - Removed support for legacy headers (and therefore the `setAllHeaders` parameter). [Read this if you need help.](https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet/wiki/Setting-legacy-Content-Security-Policy-headers-in-Helmet-4)
  - Removed the `loose` option
  - Removed support for functions as directive values. You must supply an iterable of strings

- `helmet.hidePoweredBy` no longer accepts arguments. See [this article](https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet/wiki/How-to-set-a-custom-X%E2%80%93Powered%E2%80%93By-header) to see how to replicate the removed behavior. See [#224](https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet/issues/224).
- `helmet.hsts`:
  - Dropped support for `includeSubdomains` with a lowercase D. See [#231](https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet/issues/231)
  - Dropped support for `setIf`. [Read this if you need help.](https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet/wiki/Conditionally-using-middleware) See [#232](https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet/issues/232)
- `helmet.xssFilter` no longer accepts options. Read ["How to disable blocking with X-XSS-Protection"](https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet/wiki/How-to-disable-blocking-with-X%E2%80%93XSS%E2%80%93Protection) and ["How to enable the `report` directive with X-XSS-Protection"](https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet/wiki/How-to-enable-the-%60report%60-directive-with-X%E2%80%93XSS%E2%80%93Protection) if you need the legacy behavior.
