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-2024-0705 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-2024-0705 advisory.
- In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.0.10, 9.1.5, and 9.2.2, a low-privileged user that does not hold the
admin or power Splunk roles could cause a Remote Code Execution through an external lookup that likely
references the splunk_archiver application.The splunk_archiver application likely contains a script
called copybuckets.py that itself references a file called erp_launcher.py, which would likely execute
a script called sudobash.The sudobash script does not perform any input checking. Therefore it runs a
bash shell with arguments supplied by the erp_launcher.py file. This can lead to an RCE.
