96/ 100Excellent

On October 30, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 2151 pages and 996 assets of indietool.io, starting from https://indietool.io/. It scored 96 out of 100, an excellent result. 13 of 33 checks found something to fix, led by heavy assets (2), title tags (214), meta descriptions (174); 8 checks passed. Most of the points went to heavy assets (−1.2), title tags (−1), meta descriptions (−0.7). 12 checks found something the score does not count, listed as noted. 4 checks were not run because the crawl fetched nothing for them. The list below shows each check's result, the fix plan, when present, explains what to do first, and the security review at the end of the page covers headers, transport, libraries and exposed files.

Security review

Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawl

The website lacks several important security headers, increasing vulnerability to attacks. Implementing a Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and other security headers is crucial for protecting your site and user data. This review outlines necessary steps to enhance your site's security.

  • 0 high
  • 2 medium
  • 3 low
  • 1 info
  1. 1

    Missing Content Security Policy (CSP)Medium

    Why it matters: Without a CSP, the browser allows scripts and styles from any source, heightening the risk of cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

    Fix: Add the header: Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';

    Evidence: Content Security Policy

  2. 2

    No Clickjacking ProtectionMedium

    Why it matters: Missing X-Frame-Options allows your site to be embedded in a frame, exposing users to clickjacking attacks.

    Fix: Add the header: X-Frame-Options: DENY or X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN.

    Evidence: Clickjacking protection

  3. 3

    Absence of MIME Sniffing ProtectionLow

    Why it matters: Without X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff, browsers may incorrectly interpret files based on their content, potentially executing malicious scripts.

    Fix: Add the header: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff.

    Evidence: MIME sniffing protection

  4. 4

    No Referrer Policy SetLow

    Why it matters: Lacking a referrer-policy can lead to leaking sensitive URLs when users navigate away from your site.

    Fix: Add the header: Referrer-Policy: no-referrer.

    Evidence: Referrer policy

  5. 5

    Framework Disclosure in Server BannerLow

    Why it matters: The presence of X-Powered-By header may expose the framework used, potentially aiding attackers during vulnerability assessments.

    Fix: Consider removing the X-Powered-By header or using a value that does not disclose specifics.

    Evidence: Software version disclosure

  6. 6

    Missing Permissions PolicyInfo

    Why it matters: A permissions-policy header can limit the use of sensitive browser features, helping mitigate potential misuse by malicious scripts.

    Fix: Add the header: Permissions-Policy: geolocation=(self), microphone=(), camera=().

    Evidence: Permissions policy

What the checks found

  • FoundContent Security PolicyMedium

    None of the 2139 HTML pages send a Content-Security-Policy header or meta tag, so the browser has no restriction on where scripts, styles and frames may load from.
