01Apache JServ Protocol (AJP)tcp · unofficial · risk 5/10

Port 8009 is primarily used by the Apache JServ Protocol (AJP), which facilitates communication between web servers like Apache HTTP and servlet containers such as Apache Tomcat. It enables the passing of requests and responses efficiently and is commonly used for load balancing and proxying dynamic content. As a binary protocol, AJP is faster than traditional HTTP forwarding, but improper configuration may expose applications to security risks.

Which one is on your host

ask the machine, not the registry

The registry says what 8009 is registered to. What is listening on it right now is decided by the host, and only the host can be asked. Each of these prints the process behind the socket.

linux
ss -ltnp | grep ':8009\b'
macos
lsof -nP -iTCP:8009 -sTCP:LISTEN
windows
netstat -ano | findstr :8009

On Linux and Windows the process name comes back with the socket; on macOS lsof needs sudo to name a process that isn't yours. Match what it prints against the 2 entries above.

A port number is not a service. Anything may listen on 8009 — what you actually met is decided by the host, not the registry. If a service is missing here, it belongs in the registry.
