This module (of which I am maintainer) has one form, which explicitly targets 
Google's search API.  It never actually posts back to Drupal itself.  Is it 
safe to assume, then, that it's a false positive and doesn't pose a security 
risk?  (If there's something I need to change, I will do so post haste, but 
it sounds like it's safe since the module does so little.)

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of 
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, 
which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to 
himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession 
of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it."  -- Thomas
