Most of the MODs that are here are "as-is" and at your own risk as far as I know. The ones that you need to be really critical of are the ones that accept user input. They represent the most risk if they are not filtering and sanitizing user input which may be most of them that collect user data. Forms are most often the vehicles for sql injections but not always. They can be passed through the browser as well. You should be really concerned with mods that request data in any event. BTW, I have been running 3.8.1 since the day it was released and it was upgraded from 3.7.5 with no problems and only minor custom style changes, fyi.
