Well, don't just go reporting every modification. We look at mods when users point to certain parts in the code that they feel is unsafe - like queries where the variables were not run through the cleaner. We aren't going to go through every line of code just because someone reports it saying "gee guys, is this safe?"

Check to make sure you are using the latest versions of your modifications. Do you mark Install on your mods? If so, if there is a security problem, then you should receive notification about it. Go read the thread of all your mods and see if anyone has mentioned any problems regarding them.
