01 Security

Is port 3317 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 3317. 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 3317, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :3317'      # process listening on 3317
sudo lsof -nP -i :3317

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :3317

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 3317 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 3317
netstat -ano | findstr :3317

From another machine

nmap -p 3317 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 3317 <host>
nc -zv <host> 3317

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 3317/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 3317" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 3317 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 3317 used for?

Port 3317 is assigned by IANA to vsaiport (VSAI PORT).

Is port 3317 TCP or UDP?

Port 3317 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 3317?

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 3317 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :3317'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :3317", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :3317" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 3317 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
