# WHATPORT(14442)

## NAME

port 14442 — Unassigned — Also unassigned, and usually found as the second half of a pair with 14441.

Protocol: TCP  
IANA registry

## DESCRIPTION

Like its neighbour, 14442 has no IANA registration; the registry jumps from `ca-web-update` at 14414 to `xpra` at 14500. Nmap carries it as `unknown`. What makes it worth a note is the pairing: applications that need two ports commonly grab consecutive numbers, so 14441/14442 open together points at one program with two listeners rather than two unrelated services. The identity still has to come from a banner grab or from `ss -ltnp` on the host.

## EXPOSURE

**Expose with care.** No registration to reason from. Find the owning process; consecutive-port protocols are usually designed for a trusted network.

## CHECK

```sh
nmap -Pn -sV -p 14442 TARGET
```
