CurrPorts software identifies potential AirVPN Leak?

Recommended Posts

I just had a question for everyone:

 

I was testing something out by downloading a torrent and taking off upnp and nat-bmp in utorrent (both unchecked). During the download process of the torrent, I checked in CurrPorts software (which identifies which ports are active) and I noticed that under Local Address for UTorrent Software: it shows the IP address of AirVPN (for instance: 10.x.xx.xx for all active torrent ports with others in the swarm). Along with the Local IP Address of AirVPN, I can see the remote external addresses of hundreds of people with whom I'm sharing the file with. Something of concern I noticed was that my ISP's external address populated within that swarm. Meaning among the hundreds of people with whom I'm sharing the file with, I identified my own external ip address while using AirVPN server. Does this represent a security leak?
