The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 7.0.54. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_7.0.54_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.

"The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 7.0.54. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_7.0.54_security-7 advisory.
- Apache Tomcat before 6.0.40, 7.x before 7.0.54, and 8.x before 8.0.6 does not properly constrain the class
loader that accesses the XML parser used with an XSLT stylesheet, which allows remote attackers to (1)
read arbitrary files via a crafted web application that provides an XML external entity declaration in
conjunction with an entity reference, related to an XML External Entity (XXE) issue, or (2) read files
associated with different web applications on a single Tomcat instance via a crafted web application.
(CVE-2014-0119)
