The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 7.0.4. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_7.0.4_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.

referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_7.0.4_security-7 advisory.
- Apache Tomcat 7.0.0 through 7.0.3, 6.0.x, and 5.5.x, when running within a SecurityManager, does not make
the ServletContext attribute read-only, which allows local web applications to read or write files outside
of the intended working directory, as demonstrated using a directory traversal attack. (CVE-2010-3718)
