Logs_8 March Stealer Log: One File, 99,864 Stolen Passwords
HEROIC analysts found a stealer log file, labeled Logs_8 March_processed, uploaded by an anonymous user to a public Telegram channel on March 8, 2025. The file contains 99,864 records, each pairing an email address with a plaintext password and the URL of the site or API endpoint the credential was used on. This data was harvested directly from infected devices rather than stolen from a single company's database.
Why This Is Dangerous
Because these credentials are stored in plaintext, they are ready to use the moment someone downloads the file, with no hash to crack or encryption to break. Each record also lists the exact URL the login belongs to, so an attacker knows precisely which account to target instead of having to guess, making this dataset especially efficient for account takeover.
What Was Exposed in This Stealer Log
- Email addresses
- Plaintext passwords
- Associated login URLs
Why This Matters
Almost 100,000 records sat inside a single file, uploaded in one action to a public channel. Because each password is paired with the exact site it unlocks, attackers can move straight into banking portals, email accounts, or work systems without any trial and error. That precision raises the risk of identity theft, financial fraud, and account takeover for anyone whose credentials appear in this log.
How This Stealer Log Was Created
A stealer log comes from information-stealing malware that infects a device, often through a malicious download, cracked software, or a phishing link. Once running, the malware quietly collects saved browser passwords, autofill data, and session details, then organizes everything into a log file sorted by the site or service each credential belongs to. That log is then shared or sold, in this case posted for free on a Telegram channel where other criminals can pick through it for accounts worth targeting. A file this size, nearly 100,000 records, points to data compiled from many infected machines rather than a single device.
Check If You Are Affected
Because stealer log data comes from infected devices rather than a single named website, you do not need to recognize this incident by name to be at risk. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your email address against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, including this one, so you can find out what has been exposed and secure your accounts before someone else uses this data against you.
