01 Security

Is port 3841 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 3841. Its risk depends on the program actually listening on it. General advice for databases & caches services:

  • Bind the service to localhost or a private network, never to a public address.
  • Enable authentication, use per-application accounts and require TLS.
  • Watch for exposed Docker ports: publish them on 127.0.0.1 only.

03 Check it

Which program uses port 3841, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :3841'      # process listening on 3841
sudo lsof -nP -i :3841

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :3841

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 3841 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 3841
netstat -ano | findstr :3841

From another machine

nmap -p 3841 -sV <host>
nc -zv <host> 3841

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 3841/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

04 FAQ
What is port 3841 used for?

Port 3841 is assigned by IANA to shiprush-db-svr (ShipRush Database Server).

Is port 3841 TCP or UDP?

Port 3841 is registered for TCP.

Is it safe to open port 3841?

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. Bind the service to localhost or a private network, never to a public address.

How do I check if port 3841 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :3841'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :3841", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :3841" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 3841 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
