The version of Splunk installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SVD-2023-0204 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 Splunk installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a
vulnerability as referenced in the SVD-2023-0204 advisory.
- In Splunk Enterprise versions below 8.1.13, 8.2.10, and 9.0.4, the pivot' search processing language
(SPL) command lets a search bypass [SPL safeguards for risky
commands](https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Security/SPLsafeguards) using a saved search
job. The vulnerability requires an authenticated user to craft the saved job and a higher privileged user
to initiate a request within their browser. The vulnerability affects instances with Splunk Web enabled.
