Joomla spambots attacking Silverstripe sites

Lately I've noticed a lot of errors logged by my silverstripe sites regarding database connections. That in itself is a separate issue, but the strange thing about them is the reported URLs. All of the URLs are formatted for Joomla websites, like this:
http://mysite.com/index.php?option=com_community&view=frontpage
http://othersite.com/index.php?nn_qp=1&url=http://www.nonumber.nl/

It's as though some sort of spambot is attacking Silverstripe websites in the mistaken belief that they are Joomla websites. Has anyone else noticed this behaviour? Should we be concerned?
