HTTP: D-Link Admin Password Probe

This signature detects attempts to use an admin password on a D-Link network device. A successful attack can lead to an attacker controlling the router. This activity is often used by a worm called "TheMoon" to find new D-Link devices to infect - the source is most likely compromised by this worm.
