HEROIC intelligence analysts watched the Cracked 10M ULP 12-31 by businessmenD stealer log appear on a prominent hacking forum on December 31, 2024. The dataset contained 1,503,802 unique records, each bundling an email address, homepage URL, and plaintext password. Marketed as a 10 million line URL:Login:Password compilation, the drop closed out the year with one of the largest open credential releases in the stealer-log ecosystem.


Why This Stealer Log Dump Is Dangerous

ULP files like this one are engineered for attack automation. Because each record pairs a site URL directly with a working plaintext password, credential stuffing frameworks can consume the file and begin logging in across the internet within minutes. No cracking step is required. There is no hash, no salt, and no barrier between the attacker and a list of 1.5 million live accounts sorted by exactly where those passwords work.


What Was Exposed in Cracked 10M ULP 12-31 by businessmenD

  • 1,503,802 unique email addresses
  • Plaintext passwords lifted from infected devices and browser stores
  • Homepage URLs identifying the service each password unlocks
  • Packaged as a 10 million line URL:Login:Password compilation

Why This Matters

Plaintext ULP dumps drive credential stuffing campaigns that target banking portals, webmail providers, cloud storage, and enterprise SaaS. Victims face account takeover, identity theft, and fraud on any service where they reused the exposed password. Because the dataset lists the matching URL alongside each login, attackers skip reconnaissance entirely and can prioritize high-value sites in the file, making damage from this dump faster and more surgical than traditional password leaks.


How Stealer Log Database Dumps Work

Stealer logs originate from infostealer families like LummaC2, RedLine, and Vidar that silently harvest saved credentials, cookies, and autofill data from infected Windows machines. Affiliate operators upload those logs to Telegram channels and private boards, where brokers like businessmenD aggregate, deduplicate, and repackage them into bulk ULP files. The resulting drops are either sold for subscription fees or leaked publicly once the broker has maximized their revenue from paying buyers.
