One Telegram Upload. 24,031 Logins. The Germany_KRDCLOUD Leak.
One Telegram upload. 24,031 stolen logins. That is the scale of a combolist named 24140_Germany_KRDCLOUD, posted by a Telegram user on August 5, 2026. The file pairs email addresses with plaintext passwords and the URLs those credentials were used on, and like other files HEROIC has tracked with the same naming pattern, it appears organized by region and by a specific cloud service.
Why This Is Dangerous
Because the passwords are stored in plaintext, an attacker can put this file to use immediately, without spending any time cracking anything. With 24,031 email and password pairs, someone running automated tools can work through the entire list quickly, testing each credential against the listed URL and against other services people commonly use, in search of a reused password that opens more than one account.
What Was Exposed
- Email addresses
- Plaintext passwords
- Associated URLs
Why This Matters
Cloud storage accounts often hold far more than a login: personal documents, photos, contacts, and sometimes financial records. For the 24,031 people whose credentials sit inside 24140_Germany_KRDCLOUD, a compromised cloud account could expose sensitive files directly, or serve as a stepping stone toward other accounts if the same password was reused elsewhere. The volume here is large enough that automated credential stuffing against other sites is a realistic next step for whoever obtains the file.
How Combolists Work
A combolist is a plain text file of login pairs, typically formatted as email:password, compiled from sources such as phishing pages, malware infections, or older data breaches. Sellers frequently break large combolists into files organized by region and target service, exactly the naming convention seen in 24140_Germany_KRDCLOUD, which lets buyers purchase access aimed at a specific group of victims. These files circulate on Telegram channels and are often just one entry in a much larger, ongoing series covering multiple countries.
