32782

Unassigned

No IANA registration and no default service — ordinary Linux ephemeral space.

TCP IANA registry

Description

32782 is inside IANA's unassigned 32778–32800 block: no service name, no assignee, no reference. Nmap carries it only as an unknown TCP port, at the same low frequency as 32781. Its practical identity is that it is part of the Linux default ephemeral port range, documented as 32768–60999, so the kernel hands it out to outbound sockets, to programs that bind port 0, and to Docker when publishing a container port without a fixed host port. Finding it open means a process took a free port, not that a known service is running.

Exposed to the internet?

Expose with care

An anonymous dynamically assigned port — identify the owning process locally; do not firewall-allow the number on the assumption it means something.

Check it yourself

$ sudo lsof -nP -iTCP:32782 -sTCP:LISTEN
