This makes post-exploitation activities harder, in case the local Tor instance has been compromised. It is worth noticing that Tor won't respond to a "GETINFO address" command on the control port if sandboxed, but our CGI does not make use of it, and neither is any legitimate service on IPFire doing so.
Tested on a small middle relay running on an IPFire machine.
