Network ports
Assessing the network infrastructure for the identification of critical vulnerabilities has always been a challenging and time-consuming process. Thus, we have fine-tuned a small list of known network ports with their respective services in order to help penetration testers to quickly map through potential vulnerable services (TCP/UDP ports 1 to 65,535) using Kali Linux tools.
To get a complete and a more up-to-date list of all network ports, visit http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers.
However, bear in mind that sometimes the applications and services are configured to run on different ports than the default ones, shown as follows:
|
Service |
Port |
Protocol |
|---|---|---|
|
Echo |
|
TCP/UDP |
|
Character Generator (CHARGEN) |
