As title said.

I have my system, with jellyfin, radarr, sonarr, prowlarr and transmission (amongst other services but possibly not related).

The thing is, since today’s morning, random games are being downloaded in my torrent. I haven’t done it, how is it possible that they get added without permission?

By now, I’m just deleting them as I’m at work and have no time to check much.

But it’s big quantities, like, 10 or 15 games are being suddenly added. Deleted all of them in the morning, and they showed up again

    Someone’s downloading torrents using your instance of transmission. Turn off port forwarding and put your network behind a VPN.

      I wouldn’t like using a vpn, as I have people using my services and don’t want them to be installing their vpns at their pcs, tvs, etc… Are there other options to avoid it? Otherwise I will do this, but would prefer to avoid it.

      And another question. Possibly noob question. Why would anyone want to download stuff at my computer? Just to have more seeders?

        Hopefully they’re being nice and just trying to show you that your security is garbage.

        On the other hand, they could literally be loading malware.
