From Help Net Security:
The hidden dangers of third party code in free apps
"Ad networks inherit all the permissions and capabilities of the application that contains the network’s code. If the app can see your photos, the ad network can. If you let the app read and send e-mail, the ad network can and so on. This means that if hackers are successful in penetrating the ad network's security defenses, they will have access to the same data as well."
