Is port 8610 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 8610. 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 8610, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :8610'      # process listening on 8610
sudo lsof -nP -i :8610

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :8610

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 8610 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 8610
netstat -ano | findstr :8610

From another machine

nmap -p 8610 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 8610 <host>
nc -zv <host> 8610

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 8610/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 8610" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 8610 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 8610 used for?

Port 8610 is assigned by IANA to canon-mfnp (Canon MFNP Service).

Is port 8610 TCP or UDP?

Port 8610 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 8610?

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 8610 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :8610'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :8610", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :8610" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 8610 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
