The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 7.0.5. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_7.0.5_security-7 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
