some leaked addons can have back doors.
back door is system vulnerability created intentionally for later use.
... but backdoor can also be deliberately created by the creator of a given program.
Sometimes, the backdoor itself is a programming error.

you never know unless you dig into the code. The problem is that you my leave a backdoor opened and put in risk your website or organization.

sombody can report your account on gmodstore but before they will take care of it.
if they will know from gmodstore you would just have a blocked account. and that's it.

Only consequences are using files that possibly have back doors and getting caught and banned on gmodstore.

If someone figures out you got it leaked they could report you to gmodstore and get you banned
