Nextcloud : Bad Headers detection

I'm actually encounter a problem with Nextcloud 14 (clean install)

There are some warnings regarding your setup.

Use of the the built in php mailer is no longer supported. Please update >your email server settings ↗.

The "X-XSS-Protection" HTTP header is not set to "1; mode=block". This is a potential security or privacy risk, as it is recommended to adjust this setting accordingly.

The "X-Content-Type-Options" HTTP header is not set to "nosniff". This is a potential security or privacy risk, as it is recommended to adjust this setting accordingly.

The "Referrer-Policy" HTTP header is not set to "no-referrer", "no-referrer-when-downgrade", "strict-origin" or "strict-origin-when-cross-origin". This can leak referer information. See the W3C Recommendation ↗.

Example

Like you could see above nextcloud explicitly say than i don't have this header correctly configured :

But in my httpd.conf (I Use Arch BTW <3 ) :

Header always set Content-Security-Policy "upgrade-insecure-requests"
Header always set Referrer-Policy "same-origin"
Header always set X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN"
Header always set X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block"
Header always set X-content-Type-Options "nosniff"
Header always set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=15768000; includeSubDomains; preload"

I don't understand why it's not working, I even tried see which header are used and this header is used :

I just found than nextcloud come included with a .htaccess who set his own header, so the headers was send two times and that was the cause :)

Never stop trying and learning !
