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?

a lot of important data
Hope you have a backup, not because of public torrents
The risk of malware is probably low; Plex/Jellyfin shouldn’t execute any of it.
Are you executing the files you download?
“There is no such thing as a dangerous file, only bad operating systems.”
@zergling_man @Policeshootout ok then.
