The version of WebSphere Application Server installed on the remote host is affected by an information disclosure vulnerability that allows a remote user to enumerate usernames due to a difference of responses from valid and invalid login attempts.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
