we had a similar issue once. I don't have the resolution details but you might 
ask NetApp about bug # 297075.

"The NetApp Remote Volume protocol handler received a bad packet from a 
security scanner.  The data in that request packet was not validated and one 
piece of it was used as an index into an array.  That index was much larger 
than the actual number of elements in the array.  The address of the array 
element using the bad index was in an area of virtual memory that was unmapped. 
 This resulted in the page fault when an attempt was made to access that array 
element."

  Subject: Filer panics while running NESSUS security scanner



  Hello All,



  I'm looking for any information regarding "Filer panic" when running NESSUS 
on DataONTAP.  The description that I got from another eng is this:

  Description

  Formatted

  Filer panic's while decoding overflowing authorization header when customer 
tried to run security audit package. The address of the buffer falls into end 
of a page, which caused a page fault on the filer.



  I've not been able to find any information regarding this "bug".  Has anyone 
had any issues while attempting to scan their Data ONTAP running 6.x or 7.x?  
Any help would be greatly appreciated.


  thanks

  I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to show it.
