G V stars should have snow white spikes at all distance

For example, Sun:
The spike is white when far enough:

But when going close, it shines in yellow:


However, the star itself is white:


I think it doesn't make sense if the color varies when distance changes. If my knowledge is correct, G type stars like the sun should be seen as white in space with naked eyes.

It looks like the effect of a sunrise/sunshine. Maybe it is a bug, or maybe you are passing thru the atmosphere of an invisible planet!

I don't think that's the explanation... However there's indeed something wrong with the spike near the star I suppose...

That's because you have diffraction spikes set to super, which doesn't work very well and has some issues like that. Change it to normal to fix that issue.
