Is port 7402 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 7402. 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 7402, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :7402'      # process listening on 7402
sudo lsof -nP -i :7402

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :7402

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 7402 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 7402
netstat -ano | findstr :7402

From another machine

nmap -p 7402 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 7402 <host>
nc -zv <host> 7402

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 7402/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 7402" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 7402 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 7402 used for?

Port 7402 is assigned by IANA to rtps-dd-mt (RTPS Data-Distribution Meta-Traffic).

Is port 7402 TCP or UDP?

Port 7402 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 7402?

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 7402 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :7402'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :7402", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :7402" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 7402 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
