Hi,

Because you have a rule for that port and it's allow. Red means you're
allowing that rule.

Best regards.

In answer to your question:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1133608/gufw-rules-listed-in-red-and-green-what-do-these-colors-mean

GUFW uses colors to quickly identify what type of rule you are looking at.

Green = Deny
Red = Allow
Blue = Reject
Yellow = Limit
Black = No rule set

Can you help with this problem?
