HEROIC Researchers Find Mix Prv 2 Leak: 1,806 Records Exposed

HEROIC Researchers Identify a "Mix Prv 2" Stealer Log Containing 1,806 Records

On February 28, 2023, HEROIC's research team tracking Telegram channels found a stealer log dataset shared under the label "Mix prv 2." The file held 1,806 records, and each one paired an email address with a plaintext password and the URL of the site that login was used on.

Why This Stealer Log Is Dangerous

Researchers note that even a modest dataset like this one carries real risk, because every record is complete: an email address, a readable password, and the exact site it unlocks. There is no cracking required and no ambiguity about where the credential works, which means each of the 1,806 people in this file has a fully working login exposed.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs identifying the site each login was used on

Why This Matters

Because the passwords are stored in plaintext, this data is ready for credential stuffing, where the same email and password combination gets tried across other sites and apps automatically. Anyone in this batch who reused their password elsewhere is at real risk of account takeover well beyond the single login exposed here. The included URL also removes any guesswork about where an attacker should try each credential first.

How Stealer Logs Work

Stealer logs are produced by malware that infects a device and quietly copies saved browser passwords, autofill entries, and site URLs before sending everything back to whoever controls the malware. Infections commonly spread through pirated software, fake installers, and malicious attachments. Smaller, privately labeled batches like this one often circulate quietly on Telegram before researchers or others spot them.

Check If You Are Affected

Even a smaller leak like this one is worth checking directly, since it can still include your information. HEROIC's free breach scanner searches a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, including stealer logs like this one, and shows you exactly what has surfaced so you can secure your accounts.
