XF 2.1 Is it possible to get hacked by install add-ons ?

[ShinLim]

Sorry I don't know if I post this thread in the right place or not
I have a serious question
What if I install someone add-on on this Xenforo Resources but it leads to their website, can they get my sensitive information like password, etc... from my host/server ?

By installing add-on? Yes, but it also depends on developer of the add-on you're installing and where you got it from.

Without looking at the code, it is really hard to say anything.

It's a paid add-on, but it also from new guy, so don't know if they code properly or any bugs, just worries

Anything is possible. If you’re concerned, hire someone to review the code.
