01 Security

Is port 12010 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 12010. 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 12010, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :12010'      # process listening on 12010
sudo lsof -nP -i :12010

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :12010

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 12010 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 12010
netstat -ano | findstr :12010

From another machine

nmap -p 12010 -sV <host>
nc -zv <host> 12010

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 12010/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 12010" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 12010 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 12010 used for?

Port 12010 is assigned by IANA to edbsrvr (ElevateDB Server).

Is port 12010 TCP or UDP?

Port 12010 is registered for TCP.

Is it safe to open port 12010?

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 12010 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :12010'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :12010", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :12010" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 12010 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
