Is port 4344 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 4344. 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 4344, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :4344'      # process listening on 4344
sudo lsof -nP -i :4344

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :4344

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 4344 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 4344
netstat -ano | findstr :4344

From another machine

nmap -p 4344 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 4344 <host>
nc -zv <host> 4344

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 4344/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

Is port 4344 TCP or UDP?

Port 4344 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 4344?

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 4344 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :4344'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :4344", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :4344" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 4344 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
