The Everlasting_Cloud_3 Leak: 1,423 Passwords Exposed. Yours Might Be One.

HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log file uploaded to a public Telegram channel in November 2025, catalogued as "Everlasting_Cloud_3." The file surfaced on November 5th, 2025 and contained 1,423 records harvested directly from compromised user devices. The data included email adresses, plaintext passwords, and API host URLs, meaning whoever ran this malware walked away with working login credentials ready to use immediately.

Why This Is Dangerous

Stealer logs are not old, stale data. They come from malware that sits on someone's computer and records everything they type or autofill. That means the passwords in this file were active at the time of capture. An attacker can take an email and password pair from this log and try it on Gmail, banking apps, workplace portals, and dozens of other services within minutes. The API host URLs make it worse, giving attackers a direct path into backend systems and cloud services that most people never even think to protect.

What Was Exposed

• Email Addresses
• Plaintext Passwords
• URLs (including API host endpoints)

Why This Matters

When plaintext passwords leak alongside email addresses, every account that person owns becomes a target. Attackers use a technique called credential stuffing, where they run the stolen logins against hundreds of websites automaticaly. Most people reuse passwords across multiple services, which means a single stolen credential can unlock email, social media, banking, and work accounts all at once. Identity theft, financal fraud, and account lockouts can follow within hours of a leak like this hitting the open internet.

How Stealer Log Breaches Work

A stealer log is created when malware infects a device, usually through a fake software download, a phishing email, or a malicious ad. Once installed, the malware runs quietly in the background and harvests passwords saved in browsers, login forms that get autofilled, and session tokens for apps and services. All of that data gets packaged into a log file and sent back to whoever controls the malware. That person then uploads it to a Telegram channel, a dark web forum, or sells it to other criminals. The entire process can happen in a matter of hours from the moment a device is infected.
