Is port 10114 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 10114. 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 10114, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :10114'      # process listening on 10114
sudo lsof -nP -i :10114

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :10114

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 10114 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 10114
netstat -ano | findstr :10114

From another machine

nmap -p 10114 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 10114 <host>
nc -zv <host> 10114

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 10114/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

04 FAQ
What is port 10114 used for?

Port 10114 is assigned by IANA to netiq-qcheck (NetIQ Qcheck).

Is port 10114 TCP or UDP?

Port 10114 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 10114?

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 10114 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :10114'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :10114", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :10114" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 10114 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
