How to set Nginx file to remove failed HTTP checks

[rushout912]

Hi,

I have some failed HTTP checks for both API and 2FA connector calls, but when I checked my Nginx security headers configuration file, I couldn't see such headers 'x-xss-protection' and 'x-frame-options' as shown below:

add_header Referrer-Policy same-origin;
add_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
add_header X-Robots-Tag "noindex, nofollow";

But for unknown reason, curl -I https://your.domain.tld/ returns those headers even while I didn't add them :

Domain is managed through Cloudflare, so I tried to purge all caches, and set browser cache TTL to respect existing headers. Result didn't change. I'm using Firefox browser version 133.0.3. Where could I be doing wrong? Thanks for helping.
