I have just seen a new series of error in the /var/log/apache2/error.log

[Thu Oct 31 06:59:04 2013] [error] [client 203.197.197.18] script not found or unable to stat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php

[Thu Oct 31 06:59:08 2013] [error] [client 203.197.197.18] script not found or unable to stat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5

[Thu Oct 31 06:59:09 2013] [error] [client 203.197.197.18] script not found or unable to stat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php-cgi

[Thu Oct 31 06:59:14 2013] [error] [client 203.197.197.18] script not found or unable to stat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php.cgi

[Thu Oct 31 06:59:14 2013] [error] [client 203.197.197.18] script not found or unable to stat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php4

This server is running Ubuntu 12.04lts.

I have never seen this sort of attack before, should i be concerned or securing my system in any way for them?

Thanks, John
