RE: PHP Exploit via phpBB?

I haven't fully researched it yet, but our domains were just hacked, and

from the looks of it, the attack came in thru phpBB.  This morning, 
around 9:00am, I upgraded our webserver to php v4.3.10 from v4.3.9 due 
to potential security risks, and at 11:30 it looks as if the attack 
started.  By 11:48, all of the php pages, on all of our domains were 
replaced by one like this...

I don't know if this is a PHP problem or a phpBB problem as of yet, but 
I wanted to get the word out here so that y'all can take precautions if 
neccessary.  I disabled the system() function on our box, and may need 
to take further action as I discover more.

Below is what I believe to be the 'offensive' access from the Apache 
logs on the domain where the attack started.  If you see something that 
I'm missing, please let the list know.
