Technical Details

what runs on :7690

SOVD uses a REST-style API over TCP, with HTTP messages and JSON representations; port 7690 is its registered service port. Clients interact with diagnostic resources through API requests rather than speaking directly to each ECU's lower-level diagnostic protocol. TLS can protect the HTTP connection in deployments; the port number alone does not identify whether a listener is using TLS.

security overview

A reachable SOVD server may expose sensitive vehicle diagnostic data and operations, so access should be restricted to trusted diagnostic networks and protected with authentication, authorization, and TLS. Do not expose it directly to the public internet; an exposed or misconfigured endpoint could provide an attacker a route to diagnostic functions. No specific widely exploited vulnerability is implied by the port assignment.
