Repasting my comment at
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/5741#comment:21 here:

For people who use layered defenses: Please add iptables rules/AppArmor
rules/whatever rules that LOG violations so we can learn about them. We
are desperately in need of testers and auditors so this never happens in
production again. See also #3846 and consider signing up to test builds
in your hardened, auditing setups.
