Pictures wrongly rotated in thumbnails only

❓Question☑️Ready
Hi guys,
have you broken something related to rotation of images ?
It used to work quite well and now, most of my thumbnails in Immich are rotated by 90°. (on the website and on the mobile application). The standard full size image is shown correctly in the right orientation.
Most of those wrong rotated thumbnails are taken in "Portait mode" with an iphone (they are all shown rotated 90° counter clock wise in the thumbnails).
I found one or two well displayed iPhone Portait pictures and here are the differences with the wrong diplayed ones.

The one with the right oriented thumbnail :
EXIF : Camera/Orientation = top-left (1)
ExifTool/EXIF/Orientation = Horizontal (normal)

Images with bad oriented thumbnail:
EXIF : Camera/Orientation = right-top(6)
ExifTool/EXIF/Orientation = Rotate 90 CW

Both images are well shown in every software I have (windows photo viewer, XN View for example), as well as in Nextcloud and Immich in full resolution.
Only the thumbnails are rotated by 90° 😕 and I'm sure it was not the case a couple of (weeks/months) ago.
Can anyone help ? (I use v2.4.1 of Immich in yunohost)
