G-code is mostly a list of instructions that tell the machine how to move. As result, it can tell the machine to move in ways that might damage the machine, like bonking into itself or pushing the nozzle into the bed or print. There are nice visualizer that will draw the toolpath so you can see it.

Not a huge deal in my opinion.
