I noticed this a few years ago and forgot about it. How concerning is this?

Sorry I was thinking of a garage door "safety cable" which is not applicable to the spring in the picture. I will fix my post to avoid further confusion.

No worries! Tbh an enclosed (or at least shielded) garage spring is not a bad idea, although would be more difficult to inspect and work on in the event it’s needed.
