port 1801

About this tag
Port 1801 is the default TCP port used by Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ), a Windows component that provides reliable, asynchronous messaging between applications. Discussions on WindowsForum.com highlight that port 1801 is a critical attack surface for several high-severity remote code execution vulnerabilities in MSMQ, including CVE-2025-53144, CVE-2025-53143, and CVE-2025-50177. These vulnerabilities involve type confusion or use-after-free flaws that can allow an authorized or unauthenticated attacker to execute code over the network. Administrators are advised to treat these as high-priority, apply vendor updates, and consider blocking or restricting access to port 1801 if MSMQ is not required.
