According to its self-reported version, the instance of Joomla! running on the remote web server is 3.9.x prior to 3.9.9. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

3.9.9. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.
- In Joomla! 3.9.7 and 3.9.8, inadequate filtering allows
users authorised to create custom fields to manipulate
the filtering options and inject an unvalidated option.
In other words, the filter attribute in subform fields
allows remote code execution. This is fixed in 3.9.9.
