If you're not already compromised and/or part of a bot net you will be soon enough.
Personally i'd shut that one down and wipe/re-install the OS before you bring it back into the internal network. I assume you used the DMZ host option on your router so you might have already compromised your internal network anyways since that box would be able to talk directly to your internal network AND you exposed it unprotected on the internet. Once compromised its a simple lateral move to the rest of your network, which im going to assume you dont have locked down in any meaningful way.
Port forwarding is the correct solution here NOT dropping your box unprotected on the internet
