48080

Unassigned (commonly an alternate HTTP listener)

Unregistered, but the digits spell "8080 with a 4 in front" — usually someone's second HTTP port.

TCP IANA registry

Description

There is no IANA assignment for 48080 and no service name in Nmap's database, which sees it open on about 0.04% of hosts. The number is a hand-picked variant of 8080, so an open port here is most often an extra HTTP listener — a second app server, a proxy, or a management UI moved off the obvious port. Port obscurity is not access control: a version scan finds it in seconds.

Exposed to the internet?

Expose with care

Judge it as the HTTP service it usually is — cleartext with an admin UI behind it should not face the internet; a plain reverse-proxied app on TLS elsewhere is a different matter.

Check it yourself

$ curl -sS -I -m 5 http://TARGET:48080/
