Googlebot crawled my site for the first time today, and added something strange. It appended &sp=1 to my URL's. It seems like it's trying to gain authorized access?
Normally I have domain.com/?lang=en and domain.com/en
What does this URL mean: domain.com/?lang=en&sp=1, why is &sp=1 added to it?
The results with &sp=1 are the same as the root page.

Sounds like either someone else is linking to you and appending these query parameters, or you have a link somewhere on your own site that is doing this. Googlebot doesn't just invent URLs to crawl. I suggest you add the following to as many pages as you can:
<link rel="canonical" href="http://example.com/this-page" />
A "canonical" link is the one that should be used by Google to link to the page. You would not include query parameters in it if they did not affect the output.
