Security review

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

The website presents several security issues, including a lack of a Content Security Policy and proper cookie flags, as well as outdated JavaScript libraries with known vulnerabilities. These findings could expose the site to various threats, so immediate action is required.

  • 0 high
  • 3 medium
  • 1 low
  • 0 info
  1. 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: Implement a CSP header: 'Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';'

    Evidence: Content Security Policy

  2. 2

    Cookies Lack Security FlagsMedium

    Why it matters: Cookies are unprotected, leaving them vulnerable to theft or misuse.

    Fix: Set the following cookie attributes: 'HttpOnly', 'Secure', and 'SameSite=Lax'.

    Evidence: Cookie flags

  3. 3

    Outdated JavaScript LibraryMedium

    Why it matters: The site is using jQuery 3.1.1, which has known vulnerabilities that could be exploited.

    Fix: Upgrade jQuery to at least version 3.5.0.

    Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries

  4. 4

    Mixed Content IssuesLow

    Why it matters: Some resources load over HTTP on HTTPS pages, which can lead to security risks.

    Fix: Update the code to ensure all resources load over HTTPS.

    Evidence: Mixed content
