Is port 3564 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 3564. 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.

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :3564'      # process listening on 3564
sudo lsof -nP -i :3564

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :3564

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 3564 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 3564
netstat -ano | findstr :3564

From another machine

nmap -p 3564 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 3564 <host>
nc -zv <host> 3564

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 3564/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

Is port 3564 TCP or UDP?

Port 3564 is registered for TCP and UDP.
