Intruder logged into control panel as admin

I have no idea how, but an intruder logged into my Plesk control panel as an admin last night, created a customer, did some minor looking around, deleted the customer, then took off.

Any idea how someone one could break in like this?

I'm the only person with an admin account and the password is secure. All control panel access happens over HTTPS.

For what its worth, I upgraded from 9.5.3 to 10.0.1 a few days ago. Are there any known security patches that I'm missing? I saw all the posts about problems with 10.1.X so I've been waiting on upgrading.
