Is port 714 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 714. 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 714, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :714'      # process listening on 714
sudo lsof -nP -i :714

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :714

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 714 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 714
netstat -ano | findstr :714

From another machine

nmap -p 714 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 714 <host>
nc -zv <host> 714

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 714/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 714" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 714 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 714 used for?

Port 714 is assigned by IANA to iris-xpcs (IRIS over XPCS).

Is port 714 TCP or UDP?

Port 714 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 714?

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 714 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :714'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :714", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :714" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 714 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
