Security review
Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawlThe site has significant security issues, primarily serving many pages over HTTP, which risks data exposure. Additional improvements are needed with referrer policies, cookie protections, and outdated libraries. Addressing these issues will enhance user safety and reduce the risk of exploitation.

HTTP Pages Lack HTTPSHigh
Why it matters: 1310 pages are served over plain HTTP, allowing interception of data.
Fix: Enable HTTPS for all pages. Implement a redirect from HTTP to HTTPS.
Evidence: HTTPS
- 2
Insecure Cookie FlagsMedium
Why it matters: The cookie 'wordpress_test_cookie' lacks SameSite flag, allowing cross-site requests.
Fix: Set the SameSite attribute for 'wordpress_test_cookie'.
Evidence: Cookie flags
- 3
Use of Vulnerable JavaScript LibraryMedium
Why it matters: jQuery 1.7.2 has known vulnerabilities that could be exploited.
Fix: Upgrade jQuery to version 3.5.0 or higher.
Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries
- 4
Missing Referrer-Policy HeaderLow
Why it matters: 727 pages lack a Referrer-Policy, exposing URLs to other sites.
Fix: Add 'Referrer-Policy: no-referrer-when-downgrade' to response headers.
Evidence: Referrer policy
- 5
Exposed Server BannersLow
Why it matters: Server and framework versions are revealed, enabling targeted attacks.
Fix: Remove 'X-Powered-By' and server information from HTTP headers.
Evidence: Software version disclosure
- 6
Permissions Policy Not ImplementedInfo
Why it matters: No Permissions-Policy header to limit browser feature access.
Fix: Add 'Permissions-Policy: interest-cohort=()' to response headers.
Evidence: Permissions policy
