Is port 1131 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 1131. Its risk depends on the program actually listening on it. General advice for other services services:

  • Close the port if nothing on the host needs it.
  • Identify the process that listens on it (commands below) before opening it in a firewall.
  • Expose a service only to the networks that use it.

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :1131'      # process listening on 1131
sudo lsof -nP -i :1131

macOS

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 1131 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 1131
netstat -ano | findstr :1131

From another machine

nmap -p 1131 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 1131 <host>
nc -zv <host> 1131

Block it in the firewall
