The version of ISC BIND installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the cve-2022-3488 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

"The version of ISC BIND installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a
vulnerability as referenced in the cve-2022-3488 advisory.
- Processing of repeated responses to the same query, where both responses contain ECS pseudo-options, but
where the first is broken in some way, can cause BIND to exit with an assertion failure. 'Broken' in this
context is anything that would cause the resolver to reject the query response, such as a mismatch between
query and answer name. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.4-S1 through 9.11.37-S1 and 9.16.8-S1
through 9.16.36-S1. (CVE-2022-3488)
