Running into the same issue as @manofteal mentions. When passing an array (which I don’t want), it gets passed to my controller method, unvalidated. Any update on this?

Edit: @attilaorosz I checked your two potential solutions, but shouldn’t we just disable passing arrays as a body? Nest does it that way, because like you mentioned, it’s a TS issue.
