The version of Apache httpd installed on the remote host is prior to 2.4.49. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2.4.49 changelog.

  • ap_escape_quotes() may write beyond the end of a buffer when given malicious input. No included modules pass untrusted data to these functions, but third-party / external modules may. (CVE-2021-39275)

  • Malformed requests may cause the server to dereference a NULL pointer. (CVE-2021-34798)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
