Security review
Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawlThe website has notable security deficiencies, including missing HTTP headers and outdated JavaScript libraries. Implementing recommended security headers and updating dependencies will help protect users and improve the site's security posture.
- 0 high
- 4 medium
- 3 low
- 1 info
- 1
Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium
Why it matters: Without HSTS, users may be vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks when accessing via HTTP.
Fix: Add the header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains.
Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security
- 2
Missing Content Security Policy (CSP)Medium
Why it matters: Absence of CSP allows the site to load resources from any origin, increasing risk of malicious script execution.
Fix: Implement a header: Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; script-src 'self';
Evidence: Content Security Policy
- 3
Missing X-Frame-Options HeaderMedium
Why it matters: Without this header, the site is susceptible to clickjacking attacks.
Fix: Add the header: X-Frame-Options: DENY.
Evidence: Clickjacking protection
- 4
Outdated jQuery VersionMedium
Why it matters: jQuery version 2.9.30 has multiple vulnerabilities that could be exploited depending on use within the site.
Fix: Upgrade jQuery to at least version 3.5.0.
Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries
- 5
Missing X-Content-Type-Options HeaderLow
Why it matters: Lack of this header may allow browsers to incorrectly interpret files, leading to execution of malicious content.
Fix: Add the header: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff.
Evidence: MIME sniffing protection
- 6
Missing Referrer Policy HeaderLow
Why it matters: Not having a referrer policy could expose full URLs, including sensitive information, when users navigate away from the site.
Fix: Add the header: Referrer-Policy: no-referrer.
Evidence: Referrer policy
- 7
Server Version DisclosureLow
Why it matters: The server reveals its version, allowing attackers to target known vulnerabilities.
Fix: Disable the server and X-Powered-By headers or obscure their values.
Evidence: Software version disclosure
- 8
Missing Permissions-Policy HeaderInfo
Why it matters: This header restricts access to features (like camera and microphone) that the site doesn’t use, enhancing security.
Fix: Add the header: Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=().
Evidence: Permissions policy

- FoundVulnerable JavaScript librariesMedium
1 library with published vulnerabilities: jQuery 2.9.30. Whether they are exploitable depends on how the site uses them, but each has a fixed release.
- jQuery 2.9.30 in https://www.dentalchoice.ca/wp-content/plugins/gravityforms/js/placeholders.jqu…: CVE-2015-9251 (XSS via cross-domain AJAX), CVE-2019-11358 (prototype pollution), CVE-2020-11022, CVE-2020-11023 (XSS via HTML passed to DOM methods); fixed in 3.5.0
- 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.)
- pfx.leadmanagerfx.com (40 script tags)
- cdn.callrail.com (40 script tags)
- unpkg.com (40 script tags)
- code.jquery.com (41 script tags)
- cdn.jsdelivr.net (44 script tags)
- www.google.com (40 script tags)
- NoteSensitive paths in robots.txt
robots.txt lists 1 path that look private. robots.txt is public and does not restrict access, so it doubles as a map for anyone probing the site; those paths need real access control.
- Disallow: /wp-admin/
5 checks passed, 1 not applicable
