The version of Splunk installed on the remote host is prior to 9.0.4. It is, therefore, affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability where a View allows for XSS through the error message in a Base64-encoded image. The vulnerability affects instances with Splunk Web enabled.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
