Security review
Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawlThe website lacks several important security headers, exposing it to various risks including clickjacking, MIME sniffing, and uncontrolled script execution. Additionally, cookies are not adequately protected, which could allow unauthorized access. Immediate action is recommended to mitigate these vulnerabilities.
- 0 high
- 3 medium
- 2 low
- 1 info
- 1
Missing Content Security PolicyMedium
Why it matters: Without a CSP, scripts and styles can be loaded from any source, increasing attack risk.
Fix: Add a Content-Security-Policy header: 'Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';'
Evidence: Content Security Policy
- 2
Lack of Clickjacking ProtectionMedium
Why it matters: Missing X-Frame-Options allows the site to be framed by potentially malicious sites.
Fix: Add an X-Frame-Options header: 'X-Frame-Options: DENY'.
Evidence: Clickjacking protection
- 3
Missing Cookie Security FlagsMedium
Why it matters: Cookies without Secure, HttpOnly, and SameSite flags are vulnerable to theft and abuse.
Fix: Set the flags for these cookies: 'Set-Cookie: utm_source=value; Secure; HttpOnly; SameSite=Strict'. Repeat for other cookies.
Evidence: Cookie flags
- 4
Absence of MIME Sniffing ProtectionLow
Why it matters: Lack of X-Content-Type-Options can lead to script execution based on content type.
Fix: Add an X-Content-Type-Options header: 'X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff'.
Evidence: MIME sniffing protection
- 5
No Referrer Policy SetLow
Why it matters: Without referrer policy, sensitive URL details may be leaked to external sites.
Fix: Add a Referrer-Policy header: 'Referrer-Policy: no-referrer'.
Evidence: Referrer policy
- 6
Missing Permissions PolicyInfo
Why it matters: Without this header, certain browser features could be abused by injected scripts.
Fix: Add a Permissions-Policy header: 'Permissions-Policy: microphnone=(), camera=(), geolocation=()'.
Evidence: Permissions policy

Scripts run from 12 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.)
