KernelSU is unsafe. Is apatch the same?
I think it may be based on ksu, but also uses superkeys with passwords or something. I don't know much about its security, you may want to check the issues tab on github or generally the project itself.
From the security standpoint, I think rooting is always against the security. That's why DivestOS and GrapheneOS are against it, and it shouldn't be tried. However, I was interested in Shizuku that also is some another hole to patch up when exploited.
Is any root safe though?
Not really but KSU is less safe than Magisk
In what way?
Read their own official documentation. They officially said they didn't have anyone responsible for security and it's not what they cared about. This combined with basically giving the whole system root permission is very bad for security
