Is port 7282 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 7282. 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 7282, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :7282'      # process listening on 7282
sudo lsof -nP -i :7282

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :7282

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 7282 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 7282
netstat -ano | findstr :7282

From another machine

nmap -p 7282 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 7282 <host>
nc -zv <host> 7282

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 7282/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

04 FAQ
What is port 7282 used for?

Port 7282 is assigned by IANA to mzca-action (eventACTION/ussACTION (MZCA) server), mzca-alert (eventACTION/ussACTION (MZCA) alert).

Is port 7282 TCP or UDP?

Port 7282 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 7282?

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 7282 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :7282'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :7282", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :7282" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 7282 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
