Security review

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

Plausible.io needs to enhance its security headers to protect user data and prevent vulnerabilities. Key issues include the lack of HTTP Strict Transport Security, clickjacking protection, and MIME sniffing protection across multiple pages. Addressing these findings will improve overall site security.

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

    Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium

    Why it matters: Without HSTS, users can be vulnerable to interception when typing the URL without 'https://'.

    Fix: Add the header 'Strict-Transport-Security' with value 'max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload'.

    Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security

  2. 2

    Missing X-Frame-Options HeaderMedium

    Why it matters: Lack of this header allows clickjacking attacks, where malicious pages can embed your site in a frame.

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

    Evidence: Clickjacking protection

  3. 3

    Missing X-Content-Type-Options HeaderLow

    Why it matters: Without this header, browsers may execute files incorrectly based on their content rather than declared type.

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

    Evidence: MIME sniffing protection

  4. 4

    Missing Referrer-Policy HeaderLow

    Why it matters: Not having a referrer-policy can expose sensitive information when users navigate away from your site.

    Fix: Add the header 'Referrer-Policy' with value 'no-referrer-when-downgrade'.

    Evidence: Referrer policy
