Growl Team, I noticed that Growl keeps a tcp port open even when "Listen for incoming notifications" is disabled. I would expect that Growl close the open port when it is not needed, or, limit traffic to the loopback address (127.0.0.1). Can this behavior be corrected? Keeping the port open, even though Growl will not respond, does introduce some network security risk.
Here is my (sanitized) output from "lsof -n -iTCP -sTCP:LISTEN": COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME Growl 77380 username 5u IPv4 0xffffffffffffffff 0t0 TCP *:23053 (LISTEN) Growl 77380 username 6u IPv6 0xffffffffffffffff 0t0 TCP *:23053 (LISTEN) Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Growl Discuss" group.
