This signature detects an attempt to exploit a vulnerability in the search.pl CGI script, which is part of Hamilton ROADS. Attackers can view arbitrary files on the Web server.
A remote user could gain read access to known files outside of the root directory where Martin Hamilton ROADS resides. Requesting a specially crafted URL composed of '%00' sequences along with the known filename will disclose the requested file.
