VLAN's can certainly be bypassed as long as they are not setup properly.
@stake did a security review of VLAN's which can be found here:

And cisco has their own documentation on it here:

These outline potential problems and their solutions.  I would be a
little skeptical if it was only Cisco doing the research into VLAN

research into it as well. 

Yes, but the research date is August 2002. Three years is more than enough
time for changes.
