The version of Apache Commons Text on the remote host is 1.5.x < 1.10.0. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability due to unsafe script evaluation in the StringSubstitutor default interpolator.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
