I'm not using gnuplot at all. But I assume you mean that as long as I have 
produced the input (e.g., Unicode files, plots, etc.), there should be no 
problem.

The script that you call can run any code using the gnuplot "system"
call. That is the same as having access to a shell...

If the gnuplot files that you use are your own, or from one that you trust, 
then there is no risk... or actually the same risk that you had if you run the 
script outside of LyX.
