Is port 4119 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 4119. Its risk depends on the program actually listening on it. General advice for monitoring & logging services:

  • Restrict management and monitoring protocols to the monitoring network.
  • Replace community strings and default credentials.
  • Send logs over TLS.

03 Check it

Which program uses port 4119, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :4119'      # process listening on 4119
sudo lsof -nP -i :4119

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :4119

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 4119 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 4119
netstat -ano | findstr :4119

From another machine

nmap -p 4119 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 4119 <host>
nc -zv <host> 4119

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 4119/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 4119" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 4119 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows

Is port 4119 TCP or UDP?

Port 4119 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 4119?

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. Restrict management and monitoring protocols to the monitoring network.

How do I check if port 4119 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :4119'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :4119", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :4119" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 4119 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
