security concern with curl

Hi everybody, I am planing to install oasis a management tool for ads. This software requires to install curl http://curl.haxx.se/ My concern is that this would open a serious security whole on my server. Curl is stating out that: Curl is a command line tool for transferring files with URL syntax, supporting FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, GOPHER, TELNET, DICT, FILE and LDAP. Curl supports HTTPS certificates, HTTP POST, HTTP PUT, FTP uploading, kerberos, HTTP form based upload, proxies, cookies, user+password authentication, file transfer resume, http proxy tunneling and a busload of other useful tricks. So I fear that someone would be able to tranfer files on / off my server. Has anybody some experiance on that, or can give a comment on that? Thanx for any hint, Andy
