Security review
Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawlYour website has several security issues that need attention, including missing security headers, unprotected cookies, and outdated libraries. These vulnerabilities could allow attackers to compromise your site. Immediate fixes are recommended to strengthen your security posture.
- 0 high
- 4 medium
- 2 low
- 1 info
- 1
Missing Content Security PolicyMedium
Why it matters: Without a Content Security Policy, the site is vulnerable to cross-site scripting and data injection attacks.
Fix: Add a Content-Security-Policy header with a restrictive policy, e.g., "Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';".
Evidence: Content Security Policy
- 2
Lack of Clickjacking ProtectionMedium
Why it matters: The absence of X-Frame-Options allows other sites to embed your pages, risking clickjacking attacks.
Fix: Set the X-Frame-Options header to "DENY" or "SAMEORIGIN".
Evidence: Clickjacking protection
- 3
Unprotected CookiesMedium
Why it matters: Cookies without Secure, HttpOnly, and SameSite flags are vulnerable to attacks such as cross-site scripting.
Fix: Set cookies with the flags: Secure; HttpOnly; SameSite=None.
Evidence: Cookie flags
- 4
Vulnerable JavaScript LibrariesMedium
Why it matters: Using outdated libraries increases the risk of known vulnerabilities being exploited.
Fix: Upgrade to jQuery 3.5.0+, jQuery UI 1.13.2+, and Bootstrap 4.3.1+.
Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries
- 5
Missing Referrer PolicyLow
Why it matters: Lack of a Referrer Policy may expose sensitive URL information when users navigate away from your site.
Fix: Implement a Referrer-Policy header, e.g., "Referrer-Policy: no-referrer".
Evidence: Referrer policy
- 6
Mixed Content IssuesLow
Why it matters: Loading resources over HTTP on HTTPS pages can compromise the integrity of your content.
Fix: Update all resource URLs to secure HTTPS versions.
Evidence: Mixed content
- 7
Missing Permissions PolicyInfo
Why it matters: A Permissions Policy can limit features, reducing the risk of misuse by third-party scripts.
Fix: Add a Permissions-Policy header to control features like microphone and camera.
Evidence: Permissions policy
