1883, 8883: (MQTT clients without and with TLS, if the MQTT plugin is enabled. Learn more about how to pentest MQTT here.
4369: epmd, a peer discovery service used by RabbitMQ nodes and CLI tools. Learn more about how to pentest this service here.
5672, 5671: used by AMQP 0-9-1 and 1.0 clients without and with TLS
15672: HTTP API clients, management UI and rabbitmqadmin (only if the management plugin is enabled). Learn more about how to pentest this service here.
15674: STOMP-over-WebSockets clients (only if the Web STOMP plugin is enabled)
15675: MQTT-over-WebSockets clients (only if the Web MQTT plugin is enabled)
15692: Prometheus metrics (only if the Prometheus plugin is enabled)
25672: used for inter-node and CLI tools communication (Erlang distribution server port) and is allocated from a dynamic range (limited to a single port by default, computed as AMQP port + 20000). Unless external connections on these ports are really necessary (e.g. the cluster uses federation or CLI tools are used on machines outside the subnet), these ports should not be publicly exposed. See networking guide for details. Only 9 of these ports opened on the internet.
35672-35682: used by CLI tools (Erlang distribution client ports) for communication with nodes and is allocated from a dynamic range (computed as server distribution port + 10000 through server distribution port + 10010). See networking guide for details.
61613, 61614: STOMP clients without and with TLS (only if the STOMP plugin is enabled). Less than 10 devices with this port open and mostly UDP for DHT nodes.
The default credentials are "guest":"guest".
