Is port 2313 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 2313. 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.

Which program uses port 2313, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :2313'      # process listening on 2313
sudo lsof -nP -i :2313

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :2313

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 2313 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 2313
netstat -ano | findstr :2313

From another machine

nmap -p 2313 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 2313 <host>
nc -zv <host> 2313

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 2313/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
