Unassigned / VNC display :25

No IANA assignment; a listener here is VNC display :25.

TCP IANA registry

Description

IANA has 5915-5962 as Unassigned, and 5925 carries no service name. RFB's 5900+display rule makes it display :25, which is the kind of number a hypervisor reaches when it has allocated a couple of dozen guest consoles. Nothing else well-known squats on it.

Do not expose

Unauthenticated or weakly authenticated desktop access is the default failure mode of this port range — keep it on loopback or a management VLAN.

Check it yourself
