The AlphaCloudAdmin Dump: 17,097 Stolen Login Credentials Hit Telegram
In November 2025, HEROIC analysts discovered a stealer log file that had been uploaded to a public Telegram channel under the handle "AlphaCloudAdmin 713count." The file contained 17,097 records, each one representing a compromised endpoint. Every record included an email address, a plaintext password, and the URL of the service where that credential was used. Because the passwords were stored in plain text, no additional tools or technical knowledge were needed to begin exploiting the stolen data. The scale of this exposur, combined with the directnes of the credential format, makes this a particularly serious find.
Why This Is Dangerous
When over 17,000 sets of login credentials are made publicly available with passwords already in readable form, the risk of mass account takeover is immediate. Attackers can download the file and begin testing the credentials against popular platforms within minutes. Cloud administration panels, email services, and online accounts are all at risk. Many of the URLs included in this log appear to point to administrative interfaces, which means the potential impact goes beyond individual accounts and may extend to entire systems or organisational infrastructure.
What Was Exposed
The AlphaCloudAdmin 713count stealer log contained the following types of personal and account data:
- Email Addresses
- Plaintext Passwords
- URLs (web addresses linked to the compromised accounts and services)
Why This Matters
Stealer logs that include both credentials and the associated URLs remove all ambiguity for attackers. They do not need to guess which services to target. The mapping is already done. For individuals, this means their email, banking, or cloud accounts could be accessed without any warining. For organisations, it means anyone whose work credentials were captured could have exposed internal systems to outside access. Credential stuffing, identity theft, and unauthorised access to cloud infastructure are all realistic outcomes of this breach.
How Stealer Logs Work
Infostealers are a category of malware designed to quietly harvest credentials from infected computers. They spread through phishing emails, fake software downloads, or malicious advertisements. Once installed on a device, the malware runs in the background and collects saved browser passwords, active session tokens, and any credentials the user enters. This data is bundled into a log file and automatically sent to the attacker. The logs are then sold or freely shared on dark web markets and platforms like Telegram, where they can be accessed by anyone looking to exploit stolen accounts. The original victim rarely knows their data was taken until accounts start showing unauthorised activity.
