Current Behavior

Some headers are not set correctly on your instance - 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 X-Frame-Options HTTP header is not set to sameorigin. This is a potential security or privacy risk, as it is recommended to adjust this setting accordingly. - The X-XSS-Protection HTTP header does not contain 1; mode=block. 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, strict-origin-when-cross-origin or same-origin. This can leak referer information. See the W3C Recommendation. - The Strict-Transport-Security HTTP header is not set (should be at least 15552000 seconds). For enhanced security, it is recommended to enable HSTS. For more details see the documentation ↗.

Have you updated the nginx.conf file that's mentioned in the logs you've provided?

Have you updated the nginx.conf file that's mentioned in the logs you've provided?

Here is the content from /srv/nextcloud/config/nginx/site-confs/default.conf

    # HTTP response headers borrowed from Nextcloud `.htaccess`
    add_header Referrer-Policy                   "no-referrer"       always;
    add_header X-Content-Type-Options            "nosniff"           always;
    add_header X-Frame-Options                   "SAMEORIGIN"        always;
    add_header X-Permitted-Cross-Domain-Policies "none"              always;
    add_header X-Robots-Tag                      "noindex, nofollow" always;

me too:

Einige Header sind in deiner Instanz nicht richtig eingestellt - Der Strict-Transport-Security-HTTP-Header ist nicht gesetzt (er sollte mindestens 15552000 Sekunden betragen). Für erhöhte Sicherheit wird empfohlen, HSTS zu aktivieren. Weitere Informationen findest du in der [Dokumentation ↗](https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/29/go.php?to=admin-security).

i perform a security check that says A+
also a check from https://securityheaders.com gives OK

Same here, I updated my default.conf file, and have the same 'add headers' in this file as @tincanfury has, but am getting a similar/the same list of errors on the Nextcloud admin overview:

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

ill start with, the nextcloud admin panel is almost always wrong. as tomspatz noted a real quality scan reveals there is no issue.

you need to confirm your confs are up to date in both nextcloud AND in swag.
