Yep - it's a quite decent administration package for anyone afraid of
administering a system via a keyboard :o)

That aside; running it over standard HTTP is - obviously - a security risk;
you want to apply SSL. 
There's some info here : http://www.webmin.com/ssl.html

So throw SSL into the equation and I'd say you're fairly secure using it.
