Your Passwords Could Be in the LOGS_CENTER_NEW Stealer Log Leak

LOGS_CENTER_NEW Stealer Log: What HEROIC Analysts Found

On 11-Jul-2026, HEROIC threat analysts uncovered a stealer log file named "LOGS_CENTER_NEW" shared by a Telegram user. The file contained 7,517 records combining email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the URLs of the websites those credentials unlock. Stealer logs like this one are harvested directly from infected devices, meaning every entry reflects a real login that was actively used at the time of infection.

Why This Is Dangerous

Because each record links a specific website URL to a working email and password, an attacker does not need to guess which service a credential belongs to. They can open the URL, enter the plaintext password, and be logged in within seconds. With 7,517 records in this single file, that is thousands of accounts sitting exposed and ready to be taken over the moment someone downloads the list.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs of the affected accounts and websites

Why This Matters

Stealer log data is especially valuable to criminals because it comes straight from a working session on the victim's own device, not guesswork. These credentials get fed into credential stuffing tools that test the same email and password against dozens of other sites, since many people reuse logins. The result can be account takeover on email, banking, or shopping accounts, and ultimately identity theft or financial fraud for anyone whose details appear in the file.

How Stealer Logs Work

A stealer log is generated by malware that infects a person's computer or phone and quietly collects saved passwords, browser autofill data, and login sessions before sending everything back to the attacker. The malware groups the stolen credentials by the website they belong to, which is why each entry in a stealer log includes a URL alongside the email and password. These logs are then packaged and sold or shared on platforms like Telegram, often within days of the original infection.

Check If You Are Affected

If you use any of your regular passwords across multiple sites, a stealer log like this one is exactly the kind of leak that puts you at risk. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your email against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, including stealer logs like LOGS_CENTER_NEW, so you can see immediately whether your credentials were exposed and change them before anyone else uses them.
