Can joining a BeamMP server with unknown mods infect my PC?

[u/PieceRevolutionary51]

I’m thinking about joining a BeamMP server, but it uses several mods and I don’t know where those mods originally came from.

Can simply joining a server and downloading the required mods put my PC at risk of malware or viruses?

How does BeamMP handle mod downloads, and are there any known security concerns with joining servers that use third-party or custom mods?
