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-2023-1104 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

vulnerability as referenced in the SVD-2023-1104 advisory.
- In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.0.7 and 9.1.2, Splunk Enterprise does not safely sanitize extensible
stylesheet language transformations (XSLT) that users supply. This means that an attacker can upload
malicious XSLT which can result in remote code execution on the Splunk Enterprise instance.
