CFBDSIR J145829+101343 (designation abbreviated to CFBDSIR 1458+10, or CFBDSIR J1458+1013) is a binary system of two brown dwarfs of spectral classes T9 + Y0 orbiting each other, located in constellation Boötes about 104 light-years away from Earth.

The smaller companion, CFBDSIR 1458+10B, has a surface temperature of approx 370 K (≈100 °C). It used to be known as the coolest known brown dwarf until the discovery of WISE 1828+2650 in August 2011.
