This is just an error produced by the nasl interpreter when an index of string
is requested that is bigger than the actual string. For instance:
myvar = "abcd";
if(ord(myvar[10]) = 65)
{
...
}
Will cause an error message to be logged which states:
Requesting myvar[10] where myvar's length is 4.
So just ignore it, maybe someday Renaud will just turn that error message off,
because changing all the plugins to do a length check before accessing an
index would take way too long...
