Is port 1576 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 1576. 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 1576, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :1576'      # process listening on 1576
sudo lsof -nP -i :1576

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :1576

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 1576 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 1576
netstat -ano | findstr :1576

From another machine

nmap -p 1576 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 1576 <host>
nc -zv <host> 1576

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 1576/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

Port 1576 is assigned by IANA to moldflow-lm (Moldflow License Manager).

Is port 1576 TCP or UDP?

Port 1576 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 1576?

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 1576 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :1576'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :1576", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :1576" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 1576 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
