TCP 8098
Synopsis
- Riak KV (Basho) uses TCP port 8098 by default for its HTTP/REST API (e.g., GET http://host:8098/ping, bucket/keys operations, and /mapred endpoints).
- Riak Search and Riak TS deployments, which run as components of Riak, also expose their HTTP functions via the same Riak HTTP service on port 8098.
- Security note: Exposed Riak HTTP APIs on 8098 have been targeted in the wild, with attackers scanning for open 8098 to abuse unsecured endpoints (including MapReduce) for unauthorized actions such as cryptomining.
