Sucuri says the site hqporner.com is a medium security risk because it’s running an outdated PHP version (PHP under 7.4.6).
Some hardening improvements can be made:
- Missing security header for
ClickJacking Protection
. Alternatively, you can useContent-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'none'
. - Missing security header to prevent
Content Type
sniffing. - Missing
Strict-Transport-Security
security header. Affected pages:
https://hqporner.com/404javascript.js - Missing
Content-Security-Policy
directive. We recommend to add the following CSP directives (you can usedefault-src
if all values are the same):script-src
,object-src
,base-uri
,frame-src
- Default server banners displayed. Your site is displaying your web server default banners.
- Leaked PHP version. Your site is displaying your PHP version in the HTTP headers. Please set
expose_php = Off
.
However, these hardening improvements don’t impact the Sucuri grade.
To check this further I ran a parasite scan with Unmask Parasites on the site hqporner.com and it says the page is clean. You can see the same here: Unmask Parasites scan for the site hqporner.com.
I also checked the domain hqporner.com on VirusTotal and it is flagged as malicious by 1 security vendor (Quttera). You can see the same here: VirusTotal scan for the site hqporner.com.
1 out of 88 security vendors has flagged the domain as malicious; however, that is likely a false positive given the low percentage of vendors that have flagged it.
In conclusion, Sucuri says the site hqporner.com is a medium security risk because it’s running outdated software (PHP under 7.4.6). Unmask Parasites says the site hqporner.com is clean of parasites. And VirusTotal and Sucuri say the domain hqporner.com is flagged as malicious by 1 security vendor (Quttera). Overall grade: Relatively Safe.
