If there is an exploit in the bit torrent client, it needs to have a security patch either way. Enabling the use of UPnP doesn't change that. But it would significantly improve the user experience of a large number of users that want to use it to download Fedora releases. The use of UPnP is actually an improvement over manually configured port settings because they're only in place while the client is being used. But as long as the feature is at least provided as an option, having it default to "off" isn't a big deal.
