$ aptitude show minissdpd

 MiniSSDPd is a small daemon used by MiniUPnPc (a UPnP control point
 for IGD devices) to speed up device discoveries. MiniSSDPd keeps
 memory of all UPnP devices that announced themselves on the network
 through SSDP NOTIFY packets. MiniSSDPd also has the ability to handle
 all SSDP traffic received on a computer via the multicast group
 239.255.255.250:1900.

So are you using UPnP? If not, you might as well purge that and
miniupnpc, libminiupnpc8, python-miniupnpc, etc.
