Security review
Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawlThe website has several security issues, primarily related to missing security headers and the use of outdated libraries. These can expose users to potential attacks like clickjacking and cross-site scripting. Immediate fixes, such as implementing proper HTTP headers and updating libraries, are recommended to improve security.
- 0 high
- 5 medium
- 2 low
- 1 info
- 1
Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium
Why it matters: Without HSTS, initial connections can be hijacked.
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 unrestricted resource loading, increasing XSS risk.
Fix: Add the header: Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';
Evidence: Content Security Policy
- 3
Missing X-Frame-Options HeaderMedium
Why it matters: Lack of this header allows clickjacking attacks.
Fix: Add the header: X-Frame-Options: DENY
Evidence: Clickjacking protection
- 4
Outdated JavaScript LibraryMedium
Why it matters: jQuery 1.9.1 has multiple known vulnerabilities.
Fix: Upgrade jQuery to version 3.5.0 or later.
Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries
- 5
Exposed Google API KeyMedium
Why it matters: Public exposure of API keys increases risk of misuse.
Fix: Restrict Google API key by HTTP referrer in the Google Cloud console.
Evidence: Keys and secrets in page code
- 6
Missing X-Content-Type-Options HeaderLow
Why it matters: Without this header, browsers may misinterpret file types.
Fix: Add the header: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Evidence: MIME sniffing protection
- 7
Missing Referrer PolicyLow
Why it matters: No policy exposes sensitive URLs when navigating.
Fix: Add the header: Referrer-Policy: no-referrer
Evidence: Referrer policy
- 8
Missing Permissions PolicyInfo
Why it matters: Lack of policy can lead to misuse of browser features.
Fix: Add the header: Permissions-Policy: disable-accelerometer; disable-camera; disable-microphone
Evidence: Permissions policy

1 library with published vulnerabilities: jQuery 1.9.1. Whether they are exploitable depends on how the site uses them, but each has a fixed release.
- jQuery 1.9.1 in https://www.dfslaw.ca/wp-content/themes/DFSLawTheme/js/jquery-1.9.1.min.js: 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
- FoundKeys and secrets in page codeMedium
1 credential-like value found in code served to every visitor: Google API key.
- Google API key AIzaSy…tw (39 chars) in https://www.dfslaw.ca/: browser keys are expected in pages, but must be restricted by HTTP referrer and API in the Google Cloud console
- NoteThird-party scripts
Scripts run from 2 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.)
- www.googletagmanager.com (38 script tags)
- maps.googleapis.com (38 script tags)
- NoteSensitive paths in robots.txt
robots.txt lists 3 paths 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
- Disallow: /wp-includes
- Disallow: /wp-includes/js
4 checks passed, 2 not applicable
- OKHTTPS
All 38 crawled pages were served over HTTPS.
- OKSoftware version disclosure
The Server header names a product without a version, and there is no X-Powered-By header.
- OKMixed content
No HTTPS page loads a script, stylesheet, font or image over plain HTTP.
- OKExposed files and listings
None of the crawled URLs is a configuration file, backup, dump, repository folder or directory listing.
- Not applicableCookie flags
The crawl set no cookies, so there are no cookie flags to check.
- Not applicableForms over HTTPS
No forms were found on the sampled pages.
