Technical Details

what runs on :3528

JBoss uses port 3528 for CORBA's Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP) when the server's IIOP/ORB service is enabled. IIOP carries GIOP messages over TCP; those messages use a binary header and CDR-encoded request and reply data, with object references (IORs) identifying remote objects. Although the IANA assignment lists both TCP and UDP, a normal JBoss IIOP listener is TCP-based; UDP is not generally expected. Some JBoss configurations use port 3529 for SSL-protected IIOP.

security overview

IIOP is not encrypted by default, and the protocol itself does not guarantee that remote object calls require authentication; protections depend on JBoss and application configuration. An exposed listener can let clients reach whatever CORBA objects the server makes available, so disable IIOP if unused and restrict access or configure SSL and suitable authorization if needed. The supplied scan data reports no open observations, consistent with this being an uncommon internet-facing service.
