Title: vulnerable port found in network search - 30005
Post by: Secret2 on March 22, 2022, 12:33:27 PM
I called my services and they said they just don't see this port being open, despite Avast's message. Is there something I'm missing? Is it risky it's potentially open? (According to Google results it can lead to trojans)

FWIW, some DSL routers use port 30005-30007 for remote management (TR-069).

Hi alan, yes I've read that, but it means the port remains open and I'm vulnerable to trojans? I read online about others worried about this.

Open ports are always a risk, unfortunately some vendors/ISPs don't care.

Hi Asyn, but would you say that with port 30005 being open, I'm exposed to those trojans listed online from that port? Or it's less likely? Also, what would be an alternative? My ISP customer service just wasn't professional enough to see it being open and did not understand what I wanted from them.
