How Drupal sites are hacked

Drupal
How sites are hacked
Following are the weaker points to hack the Drupal sites
1.     Insecure Environment: Permission, Previlage, Poor backup, and Unautherise accessing  
2.    SQL injection:  is often used to attack data driven applications
3.    XSS (Cross-site scripting)
·         XSS enables attackers to inject client-side script into Web pages viewed by other users. A cross-site scripting vulnerability may be used by attackers to bypass access controls such as the same origin policy. Cross-site scripting carried out on websites accounted for roughly 84% of all security vulnerabilities documented by Symantec as of 2007. Their effect may range from a petty nuisance to a significant security risk, depending on the sensitivity of the data handled by the vulnerable site and the nature of any security mitigation implemented by the site's owner.
·         Admin unknowingly executes
·         Javascripts alerts admin-only settings
4.    Outdated codes
5.     Databases Password (keeping old and unsecured passwords)
6.     FTP Password (keeping old and unsecured passwords)
7.    Total Commander with saved passwords.
