58080

Unassigned — commonly an alternate HTTP port

8080 with a 5 bolted on: an alternate HTTP port people choose by hand.

TCP IANA registry

Description

58080 has no IANA registration — RFC 6335 keeps this range out of the registry — but its shape is not accidental. Administrators pick it as a second or third HTTP port when 80, 8080, and 8081 are already taken, so what usually answers is a servlet container, a reverse proxy, or an application's admin UI. Nmap's nmap-services lists it "unknown" at 0.000380, and SANS ISC records probes without naming a service. An HTTP HEAD request will tell you more in one second than any registry lookup.

Exposed to the internet?

Expose with care

If it is plain HTTP fronting an admin interface, treat it as never — cleartext credentials on an unusual port are still cleartext credentials. Put it behind TLS and authentication, or behind a VPN.

Check it yourself

$ curl -s -m 5 -I http://TARGET:58080/
