Outdated jQuery Library Allows Malicious Scripts to Run in Users' Browsers

medium

Your website uses an outdated version of jQuery (3.3.1), a common tool that helps web pages work smoothly. This version has a known flaw that could allow an attacker to sneak malicious code into your pages if your site processes any content from outside sources — like user-submitted text or third-party data. The fix is straightforward: update jQuery to the latest version.

Your website is using an old version of a very common JavaScript tool called jQuery (version 3.3.1). This version has a known flaw that can allow an attacker to sneak malicious code onto your web pages, which then runs in your visitors' browsers.

Outdated DataTables Library Has a Known Script Injection Flaw

medium

Your website uses an outdated version of a popular JavaScript table library called DataTables (version 1.10.19). This version has a known flaw that, under specific conditions, could allow malicious content to run in a visitor's browser. The fix is a straightforward library upgrade — no redesign or major work required.

Outdated DataTables Library Has a Known Security Flaw

medium

Your website uses an outdated version of DataTables — a popular tool for displaying sortable, searchable tables. The version in use has a known security flaw that could allow a malicious actor to interfere with how your web pages behave. Upgrading to the latest version closes this gap.

Outdated DataTables Library Allows Tampering with Page Behaviour

high

Your website uses an outdated version of DataTables — a popular JavaScript library for displaying sortable, searchable tables. The version in use has a known flaw that could allow an attacker to tamper with how the page behaves by injecting unexpected values into the library's internal logic. Think of it like a faulty lock that a previous repair didn't fully fix — a second patch is needed to close the gap.

Webpages Can Be Embedded by Other Sites (Clickjacking Risk)

medium

Your website is missing a security setting that tells browsers whether your pages are allowed to be embedded inside other websites. Without it, a malicious site could invisibly overlay your pages to trick your visitors into clicking buttons or links they didn't intend to — a technique called clickjacking. This is a missing protection layer, not an active attack in progress.

Missing Browser Security Policy Leaves Site Without a Content Filter

medium

Your website is missing a security instruction called a Content Security Policy (CSP). Think of it like a guest list for your website — it tells visitors' browsers which scripts and resources are allowed to run, and blocks everything else. Without it, your site is missing one layer of protection that could help limit the damage if another vulnerability were ever found.

Missing Security Header Leaves Connections Vulnerable to Interception

high

Your website is missing a small but important instruction it should send to browsers — one that tells them to always use a secure, encrypted connection. Without it, browsers may occasionally connect over an unencrypted channel, and there is no browser-level safeguard to prevent that from happening. Think of it like a lock on your front door: your HTTPS certificate is the lock, but this header is the sign that tells visitors to always use the locked entrance.

Missing Email Protection Lets Anyone Impersonate Your Domain

medium

Your domain account.roamler.com is missing a security record that tells email providers how to handle messages that pretend to be from you. Without it, someone could send emails that appear to come from your domain — like a fake invoice or login request — and many recipients' inboxes would accept them as legitimate. This is a configuration gap, not an active attack, but it's worth closing.

Your Domain Has No Email Sender Verification — Anyone Can Impersonate You

medium

Your domain is missing a basic email safety record called SPF. Without it, there is no mechanism in place to tell other email services which servers are allowed to send email on your behalf. Think of it like a building without a guest list — anyone can show up claiming to be from your company.

Axios Library May Leak Proxy Credentials During Web Requests

medium

Your application uses a JavaScript library called Axios to make web requests. A flaw in one of its supporting components means that if your app routes traffic through an authenticated proxy server, those proxy login credentials could be accidentally sent to the wrong destination when a redirect occurs. This only affects you if your app uses proxy authentication — if it doesn't, you're not at risk.

Axios Library Flaw Lets Attackers Crash Your Node.js Server

high

Your application uses a version of Axios — a very common networking library — that has a flaw allowing an attacker to send a specially crafted request that forces your server to consume all available memory and crash. This causes downtime for your users and can be triggered with a single request, requiring no login or special access.
