About this skill
What it does
This skill performs an HTTP header security audit, analyzing a given URL and identifying potential vulnerabilities related to HTTP headers. It checks for common misconfigurations like missing or improperly configured security headers (e.g., Content Security Policy, Strict-Transport-Security) that could expose the website to attacks such as cross-site scripting (XSS) or man-in-the-middle attacks. The skill provides a detailed report of detected issues and recommendations for remediation.
When to use it
- Website security assessment: Regularly audit your websites to proactively identify and address header-related vulnerabilities.
- Post-deployment verification: After implementing changes to HTTP headers, verify that the configurations are correct and effective.
- Penetration testing preparation: As part of a broader penetration testing engagement, quickly assess the security posture of target web applications.
- Compliance checks: Ensure adherence to industry best practices and compliance requirements related to HTTP header security.
Key capabilities
- Analyzes HTTP headers for common vulnerabilities.
- Identifies missing or misconfigured security headers.
- Provides a detailed report with recommendations.
- Supports URL input for auditing.
Example prompts
- "Audit the HTTP headers of
https://www.example.com." - "Perform a header security audit on
https://api.mycompany.net/v1and tell me if there are any missing CSP directives." - "Check the HTTP headers for
https://webapp.test.localand report on HSTS configuration."
Tips & gotchas
The accuracy of the audit depends on the skill's access to the target URL, so ensure network connectivity is available. Be aware that some header configurations might be complex and require expert interpretation of the results for complete remediation.
