Is port 2788 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 2788. 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 2788, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :2788'      # process listening on 2788
sudo lsof -nP -i :2788

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :2788

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 2788 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 2788
netstat -ano | findstr :2788

From another machine

nmap -p 2788 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 2788 <host>
nc -zv <host> 2788

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 2788/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 2788" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 2788 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 2788 used for?

Port 2788 is assigned by IANA to fryeserv (NetWare Loadable Module - Seagate Software).

Is port 2788 TCP or UDP?

Port 2788 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 2788?

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 2788 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :2788'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :2788", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :2788" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 2788 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
