Spurious Alerts?

["Finney Charles E" <FinneyCharlesE () JohnDeere com>]

Running Snort 1.8.6 on FreeBSD 4.5, Alerts on:

alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> any 80 (msg:"WEB-ATTACKS /bin/ls command
attempt"; flags:A+; uricontent:"/bin/ls"; nocase; sid:1369; rev:1;
classtype:web-application-attack;)
The packet data as displayed in ACID is:
4B 4F 52 6A 4B 30 39 4B 0D 0A 0D                              KORjK09K...
Any clues as to why SNORT would alert on the aforementioned?
