Is Web Vitals safe?

Low risk

Web Vitals sends the active tab URL to Google Chrome UX Report when its popup loads field data.

When you open the popup, Web Vitals reads the active tab's URL and posts it to Google Chrome UX Report to retrieve page-level field data. If page-level data is unavailable, it retries with the site's origin and the selected form factor.
