Alert ID:
10020-3
Risk:
Medium
Type:
Passive

Summary

An X-Frame-Options (XFO) META tag was found, defining XFO via a META tag is explicitly not supported by the spec (RFC 7034).

Solution

Ensure X-Frame-Options is set via a response header field. Alternatively consider implementing Content Security Policy's "frame-ancestors" directive.
