Port(s) Protocol Service Details Source
5678 tcp,udp rrac Port used by Linksys (and other) Cable/DSL Routers Remote Administration. Also used by MikroTik Neighbor Discovery protocol and n8n.

Vulnerable systems: Linksys Cable/DSL version 1.42.7 (BEFSR11 / BEFSR41 / BEFSRU31)
Immune systems: Linksys Cable/DSL versions prior to 1.42.7 (BEFSR11 / BEFSR41 / BEFSRU31)

SNATMAP server also uses this port to ensure that connections between iChat users can properly function behind network address translation (NAT).

Buffer overflow in the Nortel UNIStim IP Softphone 2050 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application abort) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a flood of invalid characters to the RTCP port (5678/udp) that triggers a Windows error message, a.k.a. "extraneous messaging."

WellinTech KingHistorian 3.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (invalid pointer write) via a crafted packet to TCP port 5678.

Linksys EtherFast Cable/DSL BEFSR11, BEFSR41 and BEFSRU31 with the firmware 1.42.7 upgrade installed opens TCP port 5678 for remote administration even when the "Block WAN" and "Remote Admin" options are disabled, which allows remote attackers go gain access.

A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC WinCC OA V3.14 and prior (All versions < V3.14-P021). Improper access control to a data point of the affected product could allow an unauthenticated remote user to escalate its privileges in the context of SIMATIC WinCC OA V3.14. This vulnerability could be exploited by an attacker with network access to port 5678/TCP of the SIMATIC WinCC OA V3.14 server. Successful exploitation requires no user privileges and no user interaction. This vulnerability could allow an attacker to compromise integrity and availability of the SIMATIC WinCC OA system. At the time of advisory publication no public exploitation of this vulnerability was known.
