Nedb Code Review

ISGroup SRL performed an automated Code Review (not a real Static Analysis, more a grep-on-steroid) of this NodeJS project in order to identify potential security vulnerabilities. We do not guarantee that all the findings are valid, and for sure there are plenty of false-positives and false-negatives (undetected issues) but it's free and your project could benefit from this security analisys. The following data is also available in JSON format!

Issue	Description
Missing Security Header - X-Frame-Options (XFO)	X-Frame-Options (XFO) header provides protection against Clickjacking attacks.
Missing Security Header - Content-Security-Policy (CSP)	Content Security Policy (CSP), a mechanism web applications can use to mitigate a broad class of content injection vulnerabilities, such as cross-site scripting (XSS). CSP Header was not found.

Missing Security Header - X-Download-Options: noopen	X-Download-Options header set to noopen prevents IE users from directly opening and executing downloads in your site's context.
Missing Security Header - X-XSS-Protection:1	X-XSS-Protection header set to 1 enables the Cross-site scripting (XSS) filter built into most recent web browsers.
