Security review

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

The site lacks several security headers, exposing it to risks such as data interception and cross-site scripting (XSS). Upgrading library versions and implementing recommended headers should significantly enhance security. Immediate action is required, particularly for HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) and Content Security Policy (CSP).

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

    Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium

    Why it matters: Without HSTS, attackers can intercept users' initial requests to the site.

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

    Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security

  2. 2

    Missing Content Security Policy (CSP)Medium

    Why it matters: No CSP means scripts and resources can load from any source, increasing XSS risks.

    Fix: Add the header: Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';

    Evidence: Content Security Policy

  3. 3

    Missing X-Frame-Options HeaderMedium

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

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

    Evidence: Clickjacking protection

  4. 4

    Outdated jQuery LibraryMedium

    Why it matters: The version of jQuery used has known vulnerabilities that may be exploitable depending on usage.

    Fix: Upgrade to jQuery version 3.5.0 or later.

    Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries

  5. 5

    Missing X-Content-Type-Options HeaderLow

    Why it matters: Without this header, browsers could incorrectly serve files as scripts, leading to security vulnerabilities.

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

    Evidence: MIME sniffing protection

  6. 6

    Missing Referrer-Policy HeaderLow

    Why it matters: Absence of a referrer policy exposes full URLs to third-party sites potentially revealing sensitive information.

    Fix: Add the header: Referrer-Policy: no-referrer

    Evidence: Referrer policy

  7. 7

    Server Version DisclosureLow

    Why it matters: Revealing server software versions can help attackers exploit known vulnerabilities.

    Fix: Remove the 'X-Powered-By' header or set it to a generic value.

    Evidence: Software version disclosure

  8. 8

    Missing Permissions-Policy HeaderInfo

    Why it matters: Not restricting browser features could lead to unauthorized access if a script is injected.

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

    Evidence: Permissions policy

  • NoteThird-party scripts

    Scripts run from 6 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.)
