48/ 100Poor

On November 2, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 3141 pages and 994 assets of lovelocal.com, starting from https://lovelocal.com/. It scored 48 out of 100, a poor result. 12 of 33 checks found something to fix, led by broken links (2,631), non-200 responses (2,632), heavy assets (47); 7 checks passed. Most of the points went to broken links (−20), non-200 responses (−10), heavy assets (−6). 14 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 lovelocal.com has several security issues that need addressing, including missing HTTP Strict Transport Security, Clickjacking protection headers, and vulnerabilities in JavaScript libraries. Implementing the recommended fixes will enhance the site's security posture.

  • 0 high
  • 4 medium
  • 1 low
  • 1 info
  1. 1

    Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium

    Why it matters: Without HSTS, visitors may be intercepted without HTTPS, increasing the risk of man-in-the-middle attacks.

    Fix: Add the header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains

    Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security

  2. 2

    Missing X-Frame-Options HeaderMedium

    Why it matters: Not having this header allows clickjacking attacks, where malicious sites can manipulate your site.

    Fix: Add the header: X-Frame-Options: DENY

    Evidence: Clickjacking protection

  3. 3

    Cookies Missing Protective FlagsMedium

    Why it matters: Cookies without HttpOnly and Secure flags can be accessed by scripts, posing security threats.

    Fix: Set the flags: Secure; HttpOnly; SameSite=Lax or SameSite=None; Secure for cookies.

    Evidence: Cookie flags

  4. 4

    Vulnerable JavaScript LibrariesMedium

    Why it matters: Outdated jQuery version has known vulnerabilities that could be exploited.

    Fix: Update jQuery from 3.2.1 to at least version 3.5.0.

    Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries

  5. 5

    Missing X-Content-Type-Options HeaderLow

    Why it matters: This absence increases the risk of MIME sniffing attacks, where a browser executes non-script files as scripts.

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

    Evidence: MIME sniffing protection

  6. 6

    Missing Permissions-Policy HeaderInfo

    Why it matters: This header helps to limit browser features that an injected script could exploit.

    Fix: Add the header: Permissions-Policy: interest-cohort=(), microphone=(), camera=(), geolocation=()

    Evidence: Permissions policy

  • FoundCookie flagsMedium

    2 of 2 cookies are missing protective flags. Without HttpOnly a script can read the cookie; without Secure it travels over plain HTTP; without SameSite it is sent on cross-site requests.

  • FoundVulnerable JavaScript librariesMedium

    1 library with published vulnerabilities: jQuery 3.2.1. Whether they are exploitable depends on how the site uses them, but each has a fixed release.

    • jQuery 3.2.1 in https://lovelocal.com/wp-content/plugins/gravityforms/js/placeholders.jquery.mi…: CVE-2019-11358 (prototype pollution), CVE-2020-11022, CVE-2020-11023 (XSS via HTML passed to DOM methods); fixed in 3.5.0
  • NoteThird-party scripts

    Scripts run from 3 other domains without Subresource Integrity, so a compromise of any of them changes what runs on this site. (Tag managers and analytics rarely support SRI; a Content-Security-Policy that names these hosts is the usual control.)

    • privacy-proxy.usercentrics.eu (37 script tags)
    • app.usercentrics.eu (37 script tags)
    • policies.termageddon.com (4 script tags)
  • NoteSensitive paths in robots.txt

    robots.txt lists 1 path that look private. robots.txt is public and does not restrict access, so it doubles as a map for anyone probing the site; those paths need real access control.

    • Disallow: /wp-admin/
8 checks passed
  • OKHTTPS

    All 502 crawled pages were served over HTTPS.

  • OKContent Security Policy

    A Content-Security-Policy is set on 27 of 502 pages.

  • OKReferrer policy

    A referrer policy is set through a <meta name="referrer"> tag.

  • OKSoftware version disclosure

    The Server header names a product without a version, and there is no X-Powered-By header.

  • OKMixed content

    No HTTPS page loads a script, stylesheet, font or image over plain HTTP.

  • OKForms over HTTPS

    70 forms found, all on HTTPS pages posting to HTTPS addresses.

  • OKKeys and secrets in page code

    No API keys, tokens or private keys were found in the sampled HTML and scripts.

  • OKExposed files and listings

    None of the crawled URLs is a configuration file, backup, dump, repository folder or directory listing.
