Is port 8053 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 8053. 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 8053, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :8053'      # process listening on 8053
sudo lsof -nP -i :8053

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :8053

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 8053 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 8053
netstat -ano | findstr :8053

From another machine

nmap -p 8053 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 8053 <host>
nc -zv <host> 8053

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 8053/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 8053" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 8053 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 8053 used for?

Port 8053 is assigned by IANA to senomix02 (Senomix Timesheets Client [1 year assignment]).

Is port 8053 TCP or UDP?

Port 8053 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 8053?

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 8053 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :8053'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :8053", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :8053" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 8053 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
