How Stealer Logs Work
Infostealer malware typically arrives through phishing emails, trojanized software, or malicious downloads. After infecting a device, it quietly harvests saved passwords, session cookies, and browser autofill data, then uploads the collected records to an attacker-controlled server. The resulting log files are shared or sold on dark web markets and Telegram channels.
