SNMP: Encoding Integer Too Large
This protocol anomaly triggers when it detects a SNMP message with an Integer object length of 0 or larger than 4.
Extended Description
If the length of a BER-encoded Integer primitive is 0, or larger than 4 octets, it constitutes a protocol anomaly. Such a condition could indicate a configuration or implementation error. It also could indicate that an attack against SNMP is underway.
