Is port 5785 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 5785. 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 5785, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :5785'      # process listening on 5785
sudo lsof -nP -i :5785

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :5785

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 5785 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 5785
netstat -ano | findstr :5785

From another machine

nmap -p 5785 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 5785 <host>
nc -zv <host> 5785
