BREAKING:
Is your website build on Drupal platform? Bad news is that up to 12 million websites may have been compromised by attackers! And you should assume that your site was hacked if you didn't apply the 15 Oct patch immediately.
Users should try to determine whether your websites were patched by your hosting providers before the attacks began or if those providers successfully blocked all attack attempts. If that cannot be guaranteed, the best course of action, according to the Drupal team, is to take the sites offline, delete all your files and databases, restore them from backups made before Oct. 15 and then patch the sites before bringing them back online.

this is serious case man. Drupal is widely used as CMS for many businesses, and if this fails, i think impact is certainly very big. i'm sure many data has been leaked out.
