This signature detects attempts to exploit a know flaw in the FaceBook Connect plugin for WordPress. This plugin has been abandoned by the developers and is extremely vulnerable to multiple attacks, including SQL injection. A successful attack would provide a remote attacker with complete control of the targeted WordPress site. Its use is strongly discouraged.
