That can happen very easy if you're using an old vulnerable version of an Open-Source s/w product. For instance WordPress was vulnerable 7-8 months ago, thus not many people updated their sites. Not to mention phpAdsNew2, etc.

Actually to be more specific here's a link with a list of all vulnerable applications:

Aw, Dad, you've done a lot of great things, but you're a very old man, and old people are useless

good looking out with the post there. Had remembered in the dashboard of my blogs mention that and that I was ok against it. Had me double check after this though.



Cheers,
