How the HolyCloud Stealer Log Led to 1.18 Million Stolen Logins

HEROIC analysts found a large stealer log dataset labeled HolyCloud Private 229 that was uploaded to a Telegram channel on July 18, 2026. The file contains 1,188,993 records taken directly from infected devices, including email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the URLs of the login pages those credentials open. A batch of this size did not happen by accident. It came from malware running quietly on more than a million devices, each one feeding stolen credentials back to whoever controls it.

Why This Stealer Log Is Dangerous

Almost 1.2 million passwords sitting in plaintext is a serious problem. There is no cracking or decryption needed, and every password is matched to the specific site it unlocks. A file this large gives an attacker an enormous head start, since it eliminates the guesswork of figuring out which credential belongs where.

What Was Exposed in the HolyCloud Stealer Log

• Email addresses tied to infected devices
• Plaintext passwords for those accounts
• URLs identifying the exact login pages the credentials belong to

Why This Matters for 1,188,993 People

With more than a million records involved, the odds are extremely high that many of these people reused passwords across other accounts. Credential stuffing at this scale can lead to widespread account takeover, email hijacking, and financial fraud, since attackers can automate login attempts across thousands of sites using this single file.

How a Stealer Log This Large Gets Created

Large stealer logs like this one come from malware spreading through fake downloads, cracked software, and malicious attachments across a huge number of devices. Each infection silently harvests saved browser passwords, autofill data, and session information, feeding it back to the attacker until enough records accumulate to package into a single file. Files this size are frequently marketed and traded in Telegram channels, exactly where HEROIC analysts found this one.

Check If You Are Affected

With 1,188,993 records involved, the odds of being affected are real. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your email against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, including stealer logs like this one, so you can find out quickly and secure your accounts before anyone else uses them.
