They certainly don’t review code, but on those there must be at least a scan for the most obvious malicious stuff. I am not sure it’d detect something hidden like in the article though. After all even on the guy’s PC it was only detected once it tried to actually download stuff.
The good thing about workshop is visibility, if someone notices something shady it’ll be known fast. Not perfect, but probably better than getting your mods from random sites nobody knows.
