Security review

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

The website has several important security issues that need addressing, including missing security headers and a vulnerable JavaScript library. Implementing these recommendations will help enhance the protection of user data and reduce the risk of attacks.

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

    Missing HSTS HeaderMedium

    Why it matters: Without HSTS, connections initiated without HTTPS are vulnerable to interception.

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

    Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security

  2. 2

    Missing Content Security PolicyMedium

    Why it matters: A lack of CSP allows unrestricted loading of scripts, potentially leading to XSS attacks.

    Fix: Set a Content-Security-Policy header to restrict resources, e.g., default-src 'self'.

    Evidence: Content Security Policy

  3. 3

    Missing Clickjacking ProtectionMedium

    Why it matters: Without X-Frame-Options, the site can be framed by malicious sites, increasing clickjacking risks.

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

    Evidence: Clickjacking protection

  4. 4

    Vulnerable JavaScript LibraryMedium

    Why it matters: jQuery 2.9.30 has known vulnerabilities, increasing the risk of various attacks.

    Fix: Upgrade jQuery to version 3.5.0 or later.

    Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries

  5. 5

    Missing MIME Sniffing ProtectionLow

    Why it matters: Absence of X-Content-Type-Options can allow browsers to execute files as scripts based on content.

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

    Evidence: MIME sniffing protection

  6. 6

    Missing Referrer PolicyLow

    Why it matters: Without a referrer policy, sensitive URL information may be sent to external sites.

    Fix: Set the header: Referrer-Policy: no-referrer-when-downgrade.

    Evidence: Referrer policy

  7. 7

    Server Information DisclosureLow

    Why it matters: Revealing server details can aid attackers in targeting known vulnerabilities.

    Fix: Remove or modify headers: server and x-powered-by.

    Evidence: Software version disclosure

  8. 8

    Missing Permissions PolicyInfo

    Why it matters: Absence of Permissions-Policy may expose sensitive features like camera and microphone to injected scripts.

    Fix: Implement the header: Permissions-Policy: interest-cohort=().

    Evidence: Permissions policy
