[tor-relays] Tor stop / reboot by itself + weird logs (hacking?)

[David Strappazon]

Hello everyone,

i'm running a bridge on a raspberry Pi 3B+ on Kali Linux.

Everything looks fine but after checking the logs i noticed that the service rebooted by itself in the middle on the night:

Nov 06 03:51:09.000 [notice] Interrupt: we have stopped accepting new connections, and will shut down in 30 seconds. Interrupt again to exit now.
Nov 06 03:51:10.000 [notice] Delaying directory fetches: We are hibernating or shutting down.
Nov 06 03:51:39.000 [notice] Clean shutdown finished. Exiting.
etc...

Then after that, it works again (will check tonight /tomorrow if it reboots again).

I'm trying to find why it is rebooting but without success. I checked all logs possible and also notice this in journalctl -xe:

There's two different IP that i don't know. A whois says it's a Chinese provider...

Should i consider that someone is trying to break into my home network?
