'unsafe-inline' allows inline <script> tags, defeating CSP against XSS. Remove it and use nonces or hashes instead.

Why this matters

Unsafe value (unsafe-inline, unsafe-eval) in script-src defeats CSP's main protection — XSS injections can execute again.

Learn more ▾

unsafe-inline allows inline <script> tags; unsafe-eval allows eval() and similar. Both are necessary for some legacy code but explicitly dangerous. Migrate to nonces (per-page random tokens) or hashes (per-script SHA-256) instead.

default-src provides a fallback for other directives. Set it to restrict default resource loading.

Expected: default-src 'self'
Why this matters

Security gaps expose your site and users to attacks, eroding trust.

Set object-src to 'none' to prevent Flash/Java plugin exploits.

Expected: object-src 'none'
Why this matters

object-src open in CSP allows Flash/PDF/plugin embedding — a now-deprecated attack vector that should be explicitly blocked.

Learn more ▾

object-src controls <object>, <embed>, and <applet> elements. Modern sites have no need for plugins; setting `object-src 'none'` blocks an entire class of legacy XSS vectors at zero cost. If your CSP missed it, add the directive.

Source: MDN CSP

Without base-uri, attackers can inject a <base> tag to hijack relative URLs. Set it to 'self' or 'none'.

Expected: base-uri 'self'
Why this matters

Missing base-uri in CSP leaves a base-tag injection attack path open even on otherwise strict policies.

Learn more ▾

A common omission: developers add CSP for script-src and frame-ancestors but forget base-uri. The result is a CSP that looks strict but lets an attacker rewrite every URL on the page via <base href>. Add `base-uri 'self'` to close the gap.

Without includeSubDomains, subdomains can still be accessed over HTTP.

Expected: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
Why this matters

Without includeSubDomains, a forgotten dev subdomain over HTTP can set malicious cookies that ride to the apex.

Learn more ▾

HSTS without includeSubDomains protects only the exact domain. Cookies set on a non-HSTS subdomain can ride to the apex via cookie-scope attacks. The fix is one directive append. Verify all subdomains support HTTPS first — adding includeSubDomains to a domain with HTTP-only subdomains breaks them.

Source: RFC 6797

This header prevents MIME-type sniffing, which can lead to XSS attacks. Set it to 'nosniff'.

Expected: nosniff
Why this matters

MIME sniffing lets browsers run uploaded files as JavaScript, turning a file upload into an XSS.

Learn more ▾

Setting X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff tells browsers to trust your declared Content-Type instead of guessing. Without it, an attacker who uploads a polyglot file can sometimes get it executed as a script. One header, no downside.

Source: OWASP / MDN

Controls how much referrer information is sent with requests. Set to 'strict-origin-when-cross-origin' or stricter.

Expected: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
Why this matters

Default browser behavior leaks full URLs (including query params and tokens) to every third-party resource — set a strict policy.

Learn more ▾

Without a Referrer-Policy header, browsers send the full referring URL with images, scripts, and fonts loaded from third-party origins. URLs containing tokens, user IDs, or session params end up in third-party logs. Set `Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin` (or stricter) to limit leakage.

Source: MDN / W3C

COEP prevents loading cross-origin resources without explicit permission. Required for SharedArrayBuffer and high-resolution timers.

Expected: require-corp
Why this matters

COEP enforces that all embedded resources opt-in to cross-origin embedding — required for cross-origin isolation features.

Learn more ▾

Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy: require-corp ensures every embedded resource (script, iframe, image) explicitly allows being loaded cross-origin. Combined with COOP, this enables the cross-origin-isolated context that unlocks SharedArrayBuffer, high-resolution timers, and other powerful APIs.

Handlebars3.0.0highA prototype pollution vulnerability in handlebars is exploitable if an attacker can control the template3.0.7
Handlebars3.0.0highVersions of `handlebars` prior to 3.0.8 or 4.5.2 are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution. The package's lookup helper fails to properly validate templates, allowing attackers to submit templates that execute arbitrary JavaScript in the system. It can be used to run arbitrary code in a server processing Handlebars templates or on a victim's browser (effectively serving as Cross-Site Scripting). The following template can be used to demonstrate the vulnerability: ```{{#with "constructor"}} {{#with split as |a|}} {{pop (push "alert('Vulnerable Handlebars JS');")}} {{#with (concat (lookup join (slice 0 1)))}} {{#each (slice 2 3)}} {{#with (apply 0 a)}} {{.}} {{/with}} {{/each}} {{/with}} {{/with}} {{/with}}``` ## Recommendation Upgrade to version 3.0.8, 4.5.2 or later.3.0.8

HTTP/2 provides multiplexing and header compression for better performance.

Why this matters

HTTP/1.1 forces the browser to make sequential requests, multiplying latency on every page.

Learn more ▾

HTTP/2 (and HTTP/3) multiplex many requests over a single connection, eliminating head-of-line blocking. HTTP/1.1 forces the browser to either queue requests or open many parallel connections — both worse. Most modern web servers support HTTP/2 with one config line.
