It's not like you give access to your account to a third party, but to software you run yourself and can read the source code of. Therefore I don't see how this can be classified as anything more severe than Minor.

Let's consider the following...

Your company has a Jenkins installation using this plugin. This plugin requests access to ALL repositories, including your private repositories, not just your company's private repositories.

Do you really think that your company should have access to your private repositories?!

After reading the source code I think that the permissions were broaden to support the Github Commiter Authorization Strategy. If this is the case, I think that only when using Github Commiter Authorization Strategy the permissions should be broaden.

Of course, preferably, you should be able to tell the plugin what permissions you want to ask from your users, and the plugin should warn if any of it's enabled features require more permissions...
