Is port 1182 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 1182. 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.

03 Check it

Which program uses port 1182, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :1182'      # process listening on 1182
sudo lsof -nP -i :1182

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :1182

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 1182 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 1182
netstat -ano | findstr :1182

From another machine

nmap -p 1182 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 1182 <host>
nc -zv <host> 1182

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 1182/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 1182" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 1182 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows

Port 1182 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 1182?

It depends on the program that listens on it. Open it only for a service you know and only to the networks that need it. Close the port if nothing on the host needs it.

How do I check if port 1182 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :1182'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :1182", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :1182" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 1182 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
