Why not? Its the only I've seen that actually has hackability built in! (see below) So it singles itself out, thats the whole point :)
And as previously pointed out, many times it the developer's fault for writing that insecure code
Yes developer does cross-site scripting suseptable code = developer's fault * but if a script has *only* this as its content: <? phpinfo(); ?> And *that* script has cross-site vulnerabilities is the programmer at fault for writing bad code? No, he's at fault for using PHP I rest my case ;) The only solution is to upgrade the binary. That SUCKS big time!
