I have sonarr, radarr, gluetun and qbittorrent with overseer allowing my family to request movies and automatically download. I only have public indexers in prowlarr (1337x, kickass torrents, etc.)

This NAS also has a lot of important data like photos and documents.

I am used to vetting my torrents pretty thoroughly before downloading but now it’s all automatic.

What level of risk am I running with my data when downloading things in this manner? Is there a chance of malware getting onto my NAS? Ransomware? Is the risk pretty minimal?

    You should probably contextualise this and say instead that containers make it harder for the application to affect your environment and files.

    It may be possible to break out of a container.
