There have been proven exploits, including a web link that would end up firing up a terminal window, listing the contents of your user directory. Could just as easily erased the contents. This exploit was fixed in a few weeks by Apple but it really wouldn't have been to difficult to construct an Apple script that the initial web link control of the terminal could have replicated and emailed out. We've just been lucky.
