How a Telegram Stealer Log Exposed 10,023 BabaCloudLogs Passwords
HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log labeled "BabaCloudLogs 143 Cloud Logs" posted to a Telegram channel on August 4, 2025. The file contained 10,023 records pulled directly from infected devices, including email addresses, plaintext passwords, and URLs tied to the services those credentials access. This kind of data does not come from a single company being hacked. It comes from malware quietly running on individual victims' computers, one infected device at a time, until enough logins accumulate to package into a single dump.
How This BabaCloudLogs Leak Happened
Stealer malware typically reaches a victim through a fake software download, a cracked application, or a malicious email attachment. Once installed, it quietly scans the infected device for saved browser passwords, autofill data, and active login sessions, then sends everything it finds back to whoever controls the malware. The result, in this case, was a file of 10,023 email addresses and plaintext passwords that ended up posted for anyone on Telegram to download.
What Was Exposed in the BabaCloudLogs Leak
- Email addresses
- Plaintext passwords
- URLs tied to the services and endpoints each credential accessed
Why This Matters for Anyone Who Reuses Passwords
Because the passwords in this leak are plaintext, there is no cracking required before an attacker can try them. If any of these 10,023 credentials match an account you still use, whether email, banking, or a work login, an attacker could use it directly. This kind of data is exactly what fuels credential stuffing attacks, where stolen logins are tested automatically against dozens of other services at once.
Why Stealer Logs Keep Turning Up on Telegram
Telegram channels have become a common place for stealer log files to circulate because they let anyone upload and share data quickly, with little oversight. A single infected machine can produce dozens of saved logins, and when many infected machines feed into the same malware operation, the combined logs can add up to thousands of records like the 10,023 seen here.
