My host advised yesterday that both Joomla and Mambo have come under attack in the past few weeks. Apparently this is a serious issue that can result in site defacements and more serious account and server security breaches.
He's banning anyone who doesn't upgrade to the latest version of Joomla 1.0.10.
The problem isn’t so much with the Joomla application as it is with the many modules and components developed for the program. Most hacks are coming through outdated or compromised plugins - and there are dozens of them.
