HOWEVER, even the free CMS's out there like Joomla/Wordpress are more secure than vBulletin with mods installed and just as secure without them.
It's how all these plugins work and how they're submitted and how they're installed/mounted vs's how it's done in vBulletin -- It's simply less secure

The bolded IS what I was saying. We have no disagreement there.
I have years of experience with Joomla, Wordpress, Drupal, I don't need google to tell me about the security on those. I personally know several incidents where these were defaced or "hacked." Wordpress used to be one of the worst, still is.
The problem with vBulletin is the sheer VOLUME of add-ons, plugins, skins and etc, and alot of them are from less than trustworthy sources. Alot of them have purposeful exploits coded in them.
It's the HUMANS who screw up native vBulletin, we agree.
