Hi,

my understanding is that clients that use Tor SOCKS port for name
resolution are fine.

For clients who use the DNSPort, it's not clear to me if an
attacker-controlled payload can make it's way from the exit node being
used for the name resolution to the client. Has anyone looked
into this?

Cheers,
