I quoted Plex documentation where it explains in detail that you need port 32400 OPEN for remote access. support.plex.tv/…/200289506-remote-access/

I linked the CVE but here is the plain language version because you didn’t read what I linked:

"The flaw has been assigned a CVSS score of 10.0, the highest possible level of severity. This score indicates that the vulnerability can be exploited remotely over the internet, is easy to execute, and requires no authentication or interaction from the server’s owner. A successful attack could result in a total loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. An attacker could access, modify, or delete a user’s private media files, or even disable the entire Plex server. "

What the fuck is wrong with you?

You obviously don’t use Plex to claim it doesn’t need an open port for remote access:

Jellyfin doesn’t open up your network unless you specifically allow remote access exactly like Plex. The only difference is Jellyfin doesn’t have the encrypted tunnel built in- you need to know it needs it and add it yourself.

Plex has had bugs that allowed remote access into your home’s Plex server. nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-34158

Display Port has fancy features like Display Stream Compression where the driver compresses the image going to the screen.

The solution would be for MS to move those features into Windows rather than allow manufacturers flexibility in implementation. MS would get bad publicity for monopoly and then have to deal with fixing Windows for every off brand monitor because the manufacturer didn’t follow the standard exactly.
