How the BabaCloudLogs Stealer Led to 17,086 Stolen Logins

BabaCloudLogs Stealer Log Exposes 17,086 Records

HEROIC analysts found a stealer log file labeled "BabaCloudLogs 350 Cloud Logs" that a Telegram user uploaded on October 2, 2025. The file contained 17,086 records, each pairing an email address with a plaintext password and the URL of the login page it belongs to. It is a sizable haul for a single upload, and every record in it is immediately usable.

Why This Is Dangerous

Because these passwords were exposed in plaintext, there is no encryption for an attacker to break. Anyone who obtains this file can pair each email, password, and URL and log in directly, with no cracking or guesswork required.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs of the associated login pages

Why This Matters

A dataset of 17,086 records is more than enough to fuel large-scale credential stuffing attacks, where automated tools test each stolen email and password pair against other popular sites. Any account where the password was reused faces the risk of account takeover, identity theft, or financial fraud.

How Stealer Logs Work

A stealer log like this one comes from infostealer malware that infects a device through a malicious download, cracked software, or a phishing link. Once installed, it quietly harvests saved browser passwords, autofill data, and session details, then bundles everything into a log file. These files are commonly shared or sold on Telegram channels shortly after collection, which is exactly how BabaCloudLogs went public.
