Internet TCP port 7547 is primarily used by the Customer Premises Equipment WAN Management Protocol (CWMP), also known as TR-069. This protocol is commonly used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to remotely manage end-user devices such as modems, routers, and gateways. For example, software like Axiros AXESS.ACS and Friendly Technologies' TR-069 ACS use this port for device management. However, it's important to note that this port has been targeted in the past for malware attacks due to its remote management capabilities.
TCP port 7547 is commonly used by Internet Service Providers for remote management using a protocol called TR-069 or CWMP. In the past, this port has been exploited by hackers in a variety of ways. For instance, in 2016, a large-scale Mirai malware attack was launched, exploiting vulnerabilities in this port to infect hundreds of thousands of home routers. Additionally, hackers have been known to use this port to gain unauthorized access to devices, change their settings, or even install malicious firmware. This port has also been used in reconnaissance activities to identify potential targets for future attacks. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that this port is properly secured to prevent such exploitations.
