01 Security

Is port 1344 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 1344. 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 1344, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :1344'      # process listening on 1344
sudo lsof -nP -i :1344

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :1344

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 1344 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 1344
netstat -ano | findstr :1344

From another machine

nmap -p 1344 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 1344 <host>
nc -zv <host> 1344

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 1344/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 1344" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 1344 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 1344 used for?

Port 1344 is assigned by IANA to icap (ICAP).

Is port 1344 TCP or UDP?

Port 1344 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 1344?

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 1344 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :1344'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :1344", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :1344" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 1344 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
