Light can reflect around corners, so it may just be that the tiles are raised up a little from the flashings.
If you can actually see out, i.e. see the sky, then that is a concern. Otherwise maybe it is an issue, maybe not. If it's not leaking then probably not. You could tape some plain brown cardboard to the brickwork under it, see if it ends up stained.
Sealing it up probably isn't a good idea, you may end up trapping water against the timber and make it rot.
