TCP 11112
Synopsis
- TCP port 11112 is commonly used by DICOM medical-imaging services (DIMSE).
- The dcm4chee-arc-light PACS (from the dcm4che project) uses 11112 as its default DICOM association listener port in its standard and Docker distributions.
- DCMTK-based servers (e.g., storescp, dcmqrscp) are frequently run on 11112 in documentation and real deployments to avoid privileged port 104.
- Many DICOM clients/viewers (OsiriX/Horos, RadiAnt, Weasis, 3D Slicer) are often configured to connect to PACS servers listening on 11112, especially dcm4chee or DCMTK instances.
- The pynetdicom toolkit’s example servers also commonly use 11112 for testing and integration setups.
- Security note: attackers and researchers scan 11112 for exposed DICOM services, and misconfigured PACS (including dcm4chee) have been implicated in PHI leaks and past vulnerabilities.
