Looks like some sort of shellbot wanting to connect to an IRC channel
#abusers on abuser.hacked.in:8080.

I've been seeing occaisonal probes for Mambo's index.php on and off
for a while now - the first part is similar to
http://nz-honeynet.org/papers/mambo-exploit-obfuscated.pdf but the
payloads are slightly different, though it always seems to end up with
an IRC bot of some kind.

I usually see them coupled with scans for coppermine and other remote
include issues, plus xmlrpc probes.

I think you're seeing an attempt to exploit issue#3 here -
