The remote host contains a Spring Framework version prior to 5.3.39, 6.0.x prior to 6.0.23, or 6.1.x prior to 6.1.12.
It is, therefore, affected by an HTTP Request DoS vulnerability:
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
