We've been closely tracking the surge in stealer logs circulating on Telegram, a trend that continues to plague organizations of all sizes. Our team routinely monitors these channels for potential breaches affecting our clients. What caught our attention with the "580 Fresh SeptemberTGlogsgang2" file wasn't the size—a relatively modest 1,277 records—but the clarity and specificity of the data, suggesting a targeted collection effort rather than a broad-net compromise. The file contained a mix of credentials and URLs, hinting at potential access to sensitive systems. The data had been circulating quietly since September 28, 2021, but we believe it remains relevant due to the potential for credential reuse.
The file, uploaded by a user named "Logs" on Telegram, appears to be a classic stealer log, a byproduct of malware designed to harvest credentials and other sensitive information from infected machines. The presence of both email addresses and plaintext passwords is particularly concerning, as it allows for immediate exploitation. The inclusion of URLs suggests that the malware may have been targeting specific websites or services.

The proliferation of stealer logs on Telegram is a well-documented phenomenon. Security researchers have noted the platform's popularity among cybercriminals for sharing and trading compromised data. A recent report by BleepingComputer highlighted the ease with which threat actors can acquire stealer logs on Telegram channels, often for very little cost. This low barrier to entry makes it crucial for organizations to monitor for their credentials appearing in these dumps.
