Hello MSZ,

 

You will need to allow characters that triggered in your violation if you want to accept them. To do that :

 

1) Go to "Security ›› Application Security : Headers : Character Set"

 

2) Change the State for characters that matched

 

3) Apply your policy

 

4) Test again

 

Regards
