The version of httpd24 installed on the remote host is prior to 2.4.54-1.98. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS-2022-1607 advisory.

    An HTTP request smuggling vulnerability was found in the mod_proxy_ajp module of httpd. This flaw allows     an attacker to smuggle requests to the AJP server, where it forwards requests. (CVE-2022-26377)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in the mod_isapi module of httpd. The issue occurs when     httpd is configured to process requests with the mod_isapi module. (CVE-2022-28330)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in httpd. A very large input to the ap_rputs and ap_rwrite     functions can lead to an integer overflow and result in an out-of-bounds read. (CVE-2022-28614)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in httpd. A very large input to the ap_strcmp_match function     can lead to an integer overflow and result in an out-of-bounds read. (CVE-2022-28615)

    A flaw was found in the mod_lua module of httpd. A malicious request to a Lua script that calls     parsebody(0) can lead to a denial of service due to no default limit on the possible input size.
    (CVE-2022-29404)

    A flaw was found in the mod_sed module of httpd. A very large input to the mod_sed module can result in a     denial of service due to excessively large memory allocations. (CVE-2022-30522)

    A flaw was found in the mod_lua module of httpd. The data returned by the wsread function may point past     the end of the storage allocated for the buffer, resulting in information disclosure. (CVE-2022-30556)

    A flaw was found in the mod_proxy module of httpd. The server may remove the X-Forwarded-* headers from a     request based on the client-side Connection header hop-by-hop mechanism. (CVE-2022-31813)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
