Inside Good_WordPress Stealer Logs: 87 Passwords Harvested

HEROIC found a stealer log titled Good_WordPress circulating on Telegram in May 2026. Despite its smaller size of 87 records, this dataset is specifically curated to target WordPress installations. Each record contains an email address, a plaintext password, and the URL of the WordPress site where the credential was harvested, making it a focused toolkit for website compromise.

Plaintext Passwords Eliminate Every Security Layer

All 87 passwords in this file are stored in plaintext. There is no hashing algorithm to slow down an attacker, no encryption to decode. Each credential is immediately usable, and because these target WordPress admin and user accounts, a single valid entry could grant full control over an entire website.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses linked to WordPress user and administrator accounts
• Plaintext passwords stored in fully readable form
• URLs of specific WordPress sites revealing the attack surface

Why WordPress Credentials Are High-Value Targets

WordPress powers a significant share of the internet. A compromised WordPress admin password does not just expose one account; it can give an attacker control over the entire site, including the ability to inject malicious code, deface pages, or steal visitor data. When users reuse these same passwords on personal email or banking sites, the damage extends far beyond one website.

A Technical Look at Stealer Log Collection

Infostealer malware infiltrates devices through phishing campaigns, trojanized software, or drive-by downloads. Once installed, it targets the browser's credential store, extracting saved usernames and passwords for every site the victim has logged into. The malware packages this data into structured log files that are then traded on Telegram and dark web marketplaces, giving buyers a searchable database of stolen logins.

Check If Your Credentials Were Exposed

If you manage or use WordPress sites, the Good_WordPress leak could contain your login details. HEROIC's breach scanner indexes more than 400 billion compromised records, allowing you to quickly check whether your email or password appears in any known breach. Scan your credentials now and update any exposed passwords without delay.
