01 Security

Is port 1414 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 1414. 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 1414, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :1414'      # process listening on 1414
sudo lsof -nP -i :1414

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :1414

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 1414 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 1414
netstat -ano | findstr :1414

From another machine

nmap -p 1414 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 1414 <host>
nc -zv <host> 1414

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 1414/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 1414" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 1414 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 1414 used for?

Port 1414 is assigned by IANA to ibm-mqseries (IBM MQSeries).

Is port 1414 TCP or UDP?

Port 1414 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 1414?

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 1414 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :1414'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :1414", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :1414" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 1414 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
