Telegram Users Targeted as CRYPTON_LOGS 2.0 Exposes 7,355 Records

In June 2024, HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log named CRYPTON_LOGS 2.0 circulating on a public Telegram channel. The file contained 7,355 records, each pairing an email address with a plaintext password and the URL of the site or service that password unlocked.

Why the CRYPTON_LOGS 2.0 Leak Is Dangerous

What makes this leak so usable is the format the data is in. The passwords sit in plaintext with no encryption to work through, and each one is matched to the exact website it was used on. An attacker opening this file has a direct, working set of logins rather than a puzzle to solve first.

What Was Exposed in the CRYPTON_LOGS 2.0 Stealer Log

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs of the sites and services those credentials were used on

Why This Stealer Log Matters

The Telegram users who accessed this file gained access to 7,355 sets of credentials tied to real accounts. Because password reuse is so common, criminals run leaked email and password pairs through automated tools that test them against other popular websites, a tactic called credential stuffing. Every match found can lead to account takeover, identity theft, or financial fraud.

How Stealer Logs Like This One Work

A stealer log is produced by infostealer malware, software that quietly copies saved passwords, browser autofill data, and login sessions from an infected device. Infection usually happens through a fake download, cracked software, or a malicious email attachment, and most victims never notice anything wrong. Once collected, the data is packaged into a log and shared on channels like the Telegram group where CRYPTON_LOGS 2.0 surfaced, making it available to anyone searching for fresh credentials.
