01 Security

Is port 2802 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 2802. 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 2802, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :2802'      # process listening on 2802
sudo lsof -nP -i :2802

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :2802

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 2802 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 2802
netstat -ano | findstr :2802

From another machine

nmap -p 2802 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 2802 <host>
nc -zv <host> 2802

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 2802/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 2802" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 2802 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 2802 used for?

Port 2802 is assigned by IANA to veritas-tcp1 (Veritas TCP1), veritas-udp1 (Veritas UDP1).

Is port 2802 TCP or UDP?

Port 2802 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 2802?

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 2802 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :2802'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :2802", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :2802" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 2802 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
