The third HTTP port in the 8080 series, with a registration nobody uses.
IANA assigns 8082 to Utilistor (Client) as us-cli, and Nmap's older name for it, blackice-alerts, refers to an IDS product retired long ago. In current practice 8082 is simply what a host binds after 8080 and 8081 are spoken for — a second web app, an admin interface split off from the main port, or a container publishing another service. Nothing about the number identifies the software.
Expose with care
High HTTP ports collect the things that were never meant to be public: management UIs, metrics endpoints and services that assumed a reverse proxy would authenticate for them.
