01 Security

Is port 1407 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 1407. 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 1407, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :1407'      # process listening on 1407
sudo lsof -nP -i :1407

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :1407

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 1407 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 1407
netstat -ano | findstr :1407

From another machine

nmap -p 1407 -sV <host>
nc -zv <host> 1407

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 1407/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

Is port 1407 TCP or UDP?

Port 1407 is registered for TCP.

Is it safe to open port 1407?

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 1407 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :1407'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :1407", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :1407" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 1407 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
