What is port 8181 for?!

@JarbasAl thank you for all the details! It is really cool to learn about this tool for remote control. Definitely and interesting discovering for the 8181 vulnerability.

As much as I would like to know that this source code vulnerability has been addressed and it is not feasible now, I cannot help but thinking about what you said at the top of your post about “Any device on your network can fully control your mycroft if 8181 is open”.

How could Mycroft run without this port?! How can we make sure that this port is secured?! And also concerning my previous post, which is not the part of Mycroft architecture that interacts with the cloud?!
