You have exim (most probably), samba, nfs portmapper and CUPS running.
And that thing (whatever it is) which is listening tcp:53647.

samba, portmapper and that 53647 thing are listening on all interfaces,
i.e. are reachable from outside of your host. Unless a packet filter
intervenes, that is.

And, of course, that is TCP only, there can be processes listening UDP
sockets too.

Btw consider using 'ss -nptl' or 'netstat -nptl' for a more meaningful
result.

> and should I be worried.

No, assuming that you're:

1) Using only Debian-provided software.
2) Installed and started Samba intentionally.
3) Do not intend to provide SMB to all the Internet.
