Without researching it, I would guess that it is a command/script
injection attack in a PHP based BB system. Looks like she is using a
poor file handler for the injection. Again, this is without research.

And it's a skript kiddie doing it, as they forgot to fix the [attacker] to
"your website here",,,, :)

I saw a spam recently with a 'From: youruserid () yourspamsite com'.
