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-2023-5680 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

cleaning the cache database node for this name can significantly impair query performance. This issue
affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.3-S1 through 9.11.37-S1, 9.16.8-S1 through 9.16.45-S1, and 9.18.11-S1 through
