[ale] Well, this does nothing for the reputation of Linux

[Andy Borgmann]

Where do you see this being a PHP non-security.  It sounds like it was an
updated version of vBulletin's admin panel that had a security flaw.  Even
if vBulletin is coded in PHP, I don't see why blaming PHP as a whole is
warranted in this case and not just vBulletin.  PHP seems secure enough or
Facebook.
