!!LSM Alert!! / !!PMON Alert!! (port / socket monitor)

I have the following problem on one of my servers. I keep receiving lsm alerts for different ports. Like this:

This is an automated alert generated from . This alert is to
notify the addressed users of new server sockets. New server sockets can
indicate server-software that has been started on your host, or otherwise
be an indication to malicious activity. It is advised to review this alert
and investigate if needed.
