Our Website being blocked and no reply
« on: August 30, 2022, 12:14:16 AM »
We have a client that is unable to access our site and apply for a grant. I have checked google and a bunch of other site checkers and we are fine. How can I get imec.org on the safe list and/or removed from the block list universally?

See retirable code here:
jquery-ui   1.13.1   Found in htxps://www.imec.org/wp-includes/js/jquery/ui/core.min.js?ver=1.13.1 _____Vulnerability info:
Medium   CVE-2022-31160 XSS when refreshing a checkboxradio with an HTML-like initial text label

D-Grade CSP. missing reporting, basic protection.

Legit site: https://www.scamvoid.net/check/imec.org/
Link to -connect.facebook.net has been blocked for various users.
Link to -cdn.curator.io seems safe.

Wait for a final verdict from avast team as they are the only ones to come and unblock.

Bob you might want to edit your post, Avast doesn't detect that site, so more like a spammer at work.

The site address that bob3160 gives above serves in itself a redirect address:
Re: https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/creativosmexico.com.mx

But it has some serious Word Press CMS (in)security issues:

Quote
WordPress Plugins
The following plugins were detected by reading the HTML source of the WordPress sites front page.

Plugin   Update Status   About
wordpress-simple-paypal-shopping-cart 4.5.4   Warning   latest release (4.5.9)
-https://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wordpress-simple-paypal-shopping-cart-plugin-768

Plugins are a source of many security vulnerabilities within WordPress installations, always keep them updated to the latest version available and check the developers plugin page for information about security related updates and fixes.

There are likely more plugins installed than those listed here as the detection method used here is passive. While these results give an indication of the status of plugin updates, a more comprehensive assessment should be undertaken by brute forcing the plugin paths  using a dedicated tool.


Quote
User Enumeration
The first two user ID's were tested to determine if user enumeration is possible.

Username   Name
ID: 1   not found   
ID: 2   admin9   
It is recommended to rename the admin user account to reduce the chance of brute force attacks occurring. As this will reduce the chance of automated password attackers gaining access. Take note that if the author archives are enabled it is usually possible to enumerate all users within a WordPress installation.

JS links checked by Google - and given the all green.
  -https://creativosmexico.com.mx//s/5b99f3.js   AS17378   *
  -https://creativosmexico.com.mx//s/a45549.js   AS17378   

* seems OK -> https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/cbe00154cc1aca02c46396a440a66a882824509daa2508d6b415dc8122d33748?nocache=1

 / but content-script-start.js:1 seems affected (so David's remark could have hit home with this glitch).


TLS Check gives the site with the latest secure version 1.3., site is being hosted at Tierpoint, St. Louis, U.S.A.

Otto.js says no tracking scripts, no malware, no weak security on this website being detected.

On HTTP Security, found issues with no secure setting on cache-control, no CSP (content security policy) set, no best STS policy adopted, no secure attribute on PHP sessid - for cookie security, while host-only attribute however was rightly being implemented.
