I'm trying to figure out what in the firewall is generating
these false alarms,

In SmartDefense I have Application Intelligence>Content
Protection>Malformed PNG set to "inactive." But in the
information for that item it says,

  Attack Detection:

  SmartView Tracker will log the following entries:

  Attack Name: PNG Content Protection Violation

  Attack Information: Malformed PNG

So although the "Attack Name" matches, the "Attack Information"
does not, so I guess I should not be surprised that marking
this inactive doesn't stop these false alarms.

So... What is generating these? I cannot seem to find it in
the SmartDefense tab in SmartDashboard (they really need a
search function for that). I've gone into GuiDBedit, since
there is a search function there, and found the "PNG Buffer
overflow Blocked" in the "Table>Other>inspect_logs>
dynlog_PNG_BUF_OVERFLOW" object, but that's not helping me
figure out how to disable the check from SmartDashboard. How
do I stop these checks?
