My answer would be "a bit of both". An Asterisk box is yet another network server that is vulnerable to typical network 
attacks (DoS, vulnerable web config etc). However there are concerns that are more VoIP specific, such as toll fraud 
and phone tapping concerns.

Resources:

There are special tools for VoIP. Voipsa has a good list [1], and check out SIPVicious [2] as well! 

If you have a copy of CANVAS then VOIPPACK [3] (for which I am an author) is a great option. I just added 2 new tools 
that target Asterisk boxes [4] ;-)
