I'm guessing it might be trying a probe against a content management system that has a hole in it (e.g., Wordpress has been known to leak information in the past).

Clearly some security scanner wrote those entries in your log file. If you have something checking for that kind of exploit, you might want to look at its documentation for details. (And report back!)

Above showed up in my log this morning.  Anybody know what the exploit
could be and how one can prevent this?

Thanks,
