Technical Details

what runs on :49152

There is no protocol handshake, framing, or default encryption associated with port 49152 itself. Operating systems select ephemeral ports from the dynamic/private range for outgoing connections; the application and destination port determine the actual protocol. RFC 6335 defines the dynamic/private range, and RFC 6056 discusses ephemeral-port randomization.

udp is connectionless — source addresses are trivially spoofed and it is a reflection favourite

security overview

A packet involving port 49152 identifies no particular service without inspecting the endpoint and payload. Internet exposure should be assessed based on the process listening there; unsolicited inbound access to an ephemeral port is generally unnecessary, while established outbound connections commonly use this range.
