TCP 2345
Synopsis
- TCP port 2345 is commonly used by GNU gdbserver, which provides the GDB Remote Serial Protocol for remote debugging.
- Many embedded Linux SDKs and vendor boards use gdbserver on :2345 in their official guides and images, including TI Processor SDK Linux (Sitara), NXP i.MX BSPs, and ST’s STM32MP1 OpenSTLinux.
- QEMU can expose a GDB debugging endpoint on tcp::2345 (e.g., qemu -gdb tcp::2345), and numerous tutorials connect gdb to :2345.
- Developer workflows and IDE integrations that wrap gdb/gdbserver (e.g., VS Code/CLion remote debug setups) often configure the target as host:2345 in examples.
- Security note: gdbserver on 2345 has been found exposed on IoT and embedded devices; if reachable, attackers can attach via GDB and achieve code execution with the target’s privileges.
