I have received some weird request URL in my TOMCAT access logs. which is as follows:-

\x16\x03\x01\x01\"\x01" 200 40788

as clearly seen from above log, the server has given 200(success) response to the client(the one who is accessing above URL from our server).

I am really concerned whether the hacker is trying to post some malicious data on the server?

above request is in which format? is it in hexadecimal? how should I convert above request URL to text format so that I will get to know which resource he is trying to access or on which URL he is trying to post?
