The version of F5 Networks BIG-IP installed on the remote host is prior to 17.1.0. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the K19785240 advisory.

  • In Bootstrap before 4.1.2, XSS is possible in the data-container property of tooltip. (CVE-2018-14042)

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