Network Security Open Port Question - Port 53213
Hello,
When I used the Port Scanner in Network Utility, I noticed there were 3 open TCP ports: Port 1110, which had nfs-status as its usage, Port 1538, which linked to 3ds-lm, and Port 53213 which didn't have any identified usage listed, which I found to be suspicious.
When I used the netstat -a command in terminal, I saw the following as it related to Port 53213:
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address (state)
tcp4 0 0 localhost.53213 localhost.57089 CLOSE_WAIT
tcp4 0 0 localhost.57089 localhost.53213 FIN_WAIT_2
and:
tcp4 0 0 localhost.53213 localhost.49875 ESTABLISHED
tcp4 0 0 localhost.49875 localhost.53213 ESTABLISHED
tcp4 0 0 localhost.53213 *.* LISTEN
When I googled Port 53213, I noticed it was associated with a something called Xsan Filesystem Access. I read Xsan may be associated with vulnerabilities. Specifically, I read:
The Problem Impact |
A local, authenticated attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code with system privileges, or create a denial-of-service condition. |
Does anyone know what these ports are generally associated with? Does anything seem suspicious? What does the foreign address *-* that the open Port 53213 is communicating with mean?
Thank you for your help
