Our Analysts Found the GODELESS CLOUD Dump Circulating in Public Telegram Channels

HEROIC analysts discovered a stealer log file being shared in a public Telegram channel in July 2023. The file was uploaded by a threat actor using the name GODELESS CLOUD and contained 7,792 records pulled from compromised devices. Each record held a real email address, the matching plaintext password, and the URL the victim had been signed into. The file was freely acessible to any member of the channel, meaning it could have been downloaded by hundreds of criminals before it was ever reported.

Why This Is Dangerous

Files like this one are dangerous because the passwords are not encrypted. There is nothing standing between an attacker and full access to your account. Criminals who download this file can immediately attempt to log into every service connected to those email addresses. They also run the credentials through automated tools that test them on hundreds of other websites at once, exploiting password reuse to break into as many accounts as possible.

What Information Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords (no encryption, no hashing, directly usable)
• URLs (web addresses and API endpoints from infected devices)

Why This Matters for You

Stealer logs collect data indiscriminately from any device the malware infects. There is no single target company or website. Your credentials could appear in this file even if you have never heard of GODELESS CLOUD. Once your login is in a file like this and shared on Telegram, it can be copied, sold, and reused many times over. Account takeovers, fraudulent purchases, and identity theft are the most common outcomes for people whose data shows up in stealer logs.

How Stealer Log Breaches Work

Stealer malware infects a computer and immediately begins harvesting credentials. It reads saved passwords from browsers, captures logins as the user types them, and records which websites are visited. This hapens silently in the background without any sign anything is wrong. The malware sends all of the captured data to the attacker as a log file. The attacker then packages it with data from other infected machines and posts the combined file to Telegram or dark web markets where other criminals can buy or freely download it.
