Is port 1307 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 1307. 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 1307, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :1307'      # process listening on 1307
sudo lsof -nP -i :1307

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :1307

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 1307 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 1307
netstat -ano | findstr :1307

From another machine

nmap -p 1307 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 1307 <host>
nc -zv <host> 1307

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 1307/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

04 FAQ
What is port 1307 used for?

Port 1307 is assigned by IANA to pacmand (Pacmand).

Is port 1307 TCP or UDP?

Port 1307 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 1307?

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 1307 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :1307'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :1307", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :1307" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 1307 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
