Are my site's directories safe?

    Hello,

    I have some file directories on my site with 777 permission (so that anyone can upload files through my script). My FTP account has a user name and a password and it does not allow anonymous FTP access.

    My question is: are those directories safe when anyone has permission to write to them? Could anyone possibly exploit that to upload files to those directories NOT through my scripts?
