If You Reuse Passwords, the BabaCloudLogs Leak Should Worry You

HEROIC analysts found a stealer log named "BabaCloudLogs 351 Cloud Logs" uploaded to a public Telegram channel on September 2, 2025, exposing 22,927 records of email addresses, plaintext passwords, and associated API and login URLs harvested directly from infected devices.

If You Reuse Passwords, Pay Attention

This leak is especially dangerous for anyone who reuses passwords across different accounts. Because the credentials here are stored in plaintext and matched to the exact URL each one unlocks, an attacker does not need to crack anything, only try the same password somewhere else it might also work.

What Was Exposed in the BabaCloudLogs Dump

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• Associated login and API URLs

Why This Matters for the 22,927 People Affected

If any of these 22,927 people used the same password for their email, banking, or work accounts, an attacker can use credential stuffing to test that password everywhere else it might unlock, opening the door to identity theft and financial fraud.

How Stealer Logs Like BabaCloudLogs Get Created

Stealer logs come from infostealer malware that infects a device through a fake download, cracked software, or a malicious attachment. Once running, it quietly harvests saved browser passwords, autofill data, and login URLs, then sends everything back to the attacker. The resulting file, like this BabaCloudLogs upload, is then packaged and shared or sold through Telegram channels and dark web marketplaces.
