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...
