So the bad guys had at least 12 days for defacing your system.

short cite:
   A php Internet worm released on 12/25/2004 that doesn't 
   use php bulletin boards - it attacks "ALL php scripts/pages 
   which are vulnerable to a "File Inclusion" Flaw".

So this usually happens around Xmas, when people are at home the
bad guys have some more time to open some boxes, ...

IMHO there has to be a page on typo3.org, that covers such themes
(or at least a news section).
