Technical Details

what runs on :1114

mSQL clients normally connect to the server over TCP port 1114 and then issue database requests over the mSQL client/server protocol. The service is connection-oriented and is normally configured to listen on 1114 by default; although IANA lists both TCP and UDP, database deployments generally use TCP. mSQL is a legacy database rather than a web service, so an open port may expose SQL query and administration functionality to compatible mSQL clients.

security overview

mSQL should not be exposed directly to the Internet. Legacy deployments may provide cleartext database traffic and rely on relatively basic access controls, allowing an attacker who can connect to attempt authentication, enumerate databases, or issue queries and modifications. Restrict it to trusted application hosts with firewall rules or a private network, and treat an unexpected listener as a potentially exposed database service.
