Yesterday the Turkish cracker going by the handle "Iskorpitx", successfully hacked 21,549 websites in one shot (plus 17,000 as our last update) and defaced (on a secondary page) all of them with a message showing the Turkish flag (with AtaTurk face on it) and reporting:
"HACKED BY iSKORPiTX

Wouldn't you know we reported these problems
years ago and now the customers are paying the price. Users reporting their servers have been hacked and compromised with various processes and scripts added.
For those of you who critize vB for releasing security updates as soon as they encounter them, this is why its important to have timely reponses.
