Description:
------------
1024 is not a reserved port, but many misconfigured firewall rules tend to include it and block outbound connections that use it as a source port. This is causing connection failures from Azure VMs, where the outbound load balancer often starts assigning ports from 1024 upward.

Test script:
---------------
From any fresh Azure VM *without a public IP assigned*:

curl https://www.php.net

Did your web server firewall rules recently change?

Is there any update for this? I have a small repro with this Action: https://github.com/chkimes/test-php/runs/950202873?check_suite_focus=true

The first request uses source port 1024 and fails. The second request uses source port 1025 and succeeds. This has previously been indicative of incorrectly set up firewall rules on the target.
