HEROIC analysts logged the PROXY3 combolist, dated February 6, 2026. It holds 1 email and plaintext password pair with a URL. A single entry is easy to overlook, so a check of your own email is the way to learn whether that pair is yours.


One Row, Fully Written Out

The record contains 1 entry, and it is complete: an email address, the password in plain text, and the URL it was saved for. Nothing is hashed, so the password can be read as written. The word PROXY in the file label is the uploader's choice of name, and the record says nothing about any proxy service, server or location.


The Fields in That Entry

  • Email address, the identifier for the login and the address where reset links go.
  • Plaintext password, stored without hashing.
  • URL, the site address that goes with the pair.

What 1 Entry Can Reach

The number of entries does not decide the outcome. What decides it is whether the listed password was used for more than one login. If it was, the pair can be tried on other sites, and an inbox opened that way can reset the passwords of everything linked to it. If the password was unique to one site, the effect stops there.


How a Combolist Gets Made

A combolist is a file of email and password pairs merged together and stripped of their sources so that software can test them on other sites. This one holds 1 entry. As with any combolist, the file does not say where the pair came from, and nothing in the record explains how it was assembled.


Check and Change

Run the lookup for yourself: scan your email to see your information. If the pair is yours, change that password on every site where you used it and keep a different password for each site, starting with email and banking. Both a work address and a personal address can be checked.
