Is port 6484 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 6484. Its risk depends on the program actually listening on it. General advice for messaging & queues services:

  • Require authentication and TLS on brokers and coordination services.
  • Restrict clients by network and per-topic or per-queue permissions.
  • Remove default accounts.
