8,707 Passwords From the ALPIN CLOUD Free Logs Leak Hit the Dark Web

HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log dump circulating on a public Telegram channel on December 24, 2022. Labeled by its uploader as "ALPIN CLOUD FREE LOGS," the file contained 8,707 records harvested directly from infected devices, including email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the URLs those credentials were used on.

Why This Is Dangerous

Unlike a typical corporate database leak, a stealer log hands an attacker a ready-made list of working logins tied to the exact websites they unlock. Because the passwords were captured in plaintext straight from a victim's browser or system, there is no encryption to break and no guesswork involved. Anyone who obtains this file can attempt to log into the paired email and URL combinations immediately.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs associated with each login

Why This Matters

When email, password, and site URL are packaged together, they become a direct roadmap for account takeover. Attackers use these bundles to log straight into email inboxes, shopping accounts, or work logins tied to the exposed addresses. Anyone who reused one of these passwords on other sites is also exposed to credential stuffing, where automated tools try the same login across hundreds of other services until one works.

How a Stealer Log Leak Like This Happens

Stealer logs come from malware that infects a device, often through a fake download, cracked software, or a malicious email attachment. Once installed, the malware quietly scrapes saved passwords, autofill data, and browsing history straight from the browser, then bundles everything into a log file and sends it back to the attacker. Those logs are frequently resold or given away for free on Telegram channels and dark web forums, exactly as happened here, giving anyone who downloads the file instant access to thousands of live credentials.
