on top of my mind1- The website doesn't use SSL after authentication 'although it uses it during authentication' , so basically it is vulnerable to session hijacking and side jacking attacks2- The password characters are limited to specific characters which suggest that the passwords are stored plain in database I have never done a Vulnerability Scanning since to bayt.com but that's a few of the obvious things, I did look for XSS or CSRF or stuff like that in it

I think this is not a safe way to discuss such matters. Any way SSL absence is a security risk to your site.

your code source is not encrypted so its kind of easy to locate strong characters and variables that may use in hijacking plus there are no SSL.

If you want to improve the security of your site, here are some articles that I wrote. I haven't scanned your site, but there is always something that can be done to improve security.
