Yeah, it certainly isn't safe. Apple might check what API calls apps are using to make sure they're on the approved list, but there's so many ways devs could hide things in their apps that Apple cannot test for. Best they can do is react quick and pull the apps.
Shame they don't react as quickly when it comes to applying patches (as mentioned by others earlier with regard to flashback)
