Hi,
I'm planning to run a Tor relay on a spare computer at home. Security is a concern, and not only regarding the machine running the relay but also my other computers. Are there any (theoretical or otherwise) known attacks a person can perform on a running Tor relay to take remote control of it, and assuming the said person could pull that off, is it possible to extend this control to the other computers behind the same router? I am aware of possible DDOS attacks and other risks related to running an exit, but i am comfortable in taking these chances in my environment.
I would run the relay on a yet-undecided-Linux distro, possibly Mint Debian or some flavor of Ubuntu which i am more familiar with, and use full-disk encryption with strong passwords. Are there any risks to my other computers worth consideration?
Thanks.
