The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 9.0.9. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_9.0.9_security-9 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 9.0.9. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_9.0.9_security-9 advisory.
- The defaults settings for the CORS filter provided in Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.8, 8.5.0 to 8.5.31,
8.0.0.RC1 to 8.0.52, 7.0.41 to 7.0.88 are insecure and enable 'supportsCredentials' for all origins. It is
expected that users of the CORS filter will have configured it appropriately for their environment rather
than using it in the default configuration. Therefore, it is expected that most users will not be impacted
by this issue. (CVE-2018-8014)
