Many Many more Joomla based sites are being hacked daily at the moment – and ITS NOT JOOMLA’s fault!
Firstly let me say the sites were NOT hacked through Joomla! They were all hacked through Joomla Custom Components!

If you are running Joomla 1.0.10 then there are no known security holes in that version!

HOWEVER here is a long list of custom components that have been used to hack Joomla sites, If you have any of these custom components you may get hacked!!:

extCalender • OpenSEF • phpBB Forum (com_forum) • SimpleBoard Forum • VideoDB • Mambo-SMF Forum • LoudMouth • PollXT • HashCash • perForms • Google Page Rank Module  • BSQ SiteStats • MultiBanners • MiniBB • New Article Component • Advanced Poll • JomBok • ArtLinks • PCCookBook • Mambo/Joomla SiteMap (Custom Component) • Galleria • com_spray
