Is port 5435 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 5435. 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 5435, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :5435'      # process listening on 5435
sudo lsof -nP -i :5435

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :5435

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 5435 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 5435
netstat -ano | findstr :5435

From another machine

nmap -p 5435 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 5435 <host>
nc -zv <host> 5435

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 5435/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

Is port 5435 TCP or UDP?

Port 5435 is registered for TCP and UDP.

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 5435 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :5435'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :5435", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :5435" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 5435 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
