Most ports don't do much apart from passing the traffic from the program that uses them.
It's the common ports, especially Windows ports, that are vulnerable. 135-139 are big ones. The Blaster worm attacked 135 (RPC port). For an example of something program-specific, the SQL Slammer attacked the MS SQL Server port, 1433.
