SunCloudNew Leak: Plaintext Passwords for 1,555,913 Users

Zoom in on one detail from the "SunCloudNew 2674 3" stealer log dump and it tells the whole story: every single one of the 1,555,913 passwords inside is stored in plain, readable text. Uploaded to Telegram on 15-May-2026, this batch needs no decryption at all.

Why This Is Dangerous

Plaintext passwords remove the one barrier that normally slows attackers down. In a typical corporate breach, stolen passwords are usually hashed, meaning criminals have to spend time and computing power cracking them before they are useful. Here, that step simply does not exist, so all 1,555,913 credentials are ready to use the moment someone opens the file.

What Was Exposed

• 1,555,913 individual records
• Email Addresses
• Plaintext Password
• URLs matched to each login

Why This Matters

Because there is no encryption to strip away, this leak moves from theft to actual account access much faster than most breaches. People often think a leaked password is not urgent until it is "cracked," but that whole seperate step is skiped here, so the risk window opens the day the file is posted, not weeks later.

How Stealer Logs Work

Info stealing malware reads passwords directly out of a browser's saved login manager, where they already exist in readable form on the victim's own device. The malware simply copies that data out before it ever gets encrypted for storage anywhere else, wich is why stealer logs are almost always plaintext by nature rather than by mistake.

Check If You Are Affected

Plaintext leaks like this one are some of the most urgent to check. HEROIC's free breach scanner searches a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, so you can find out fast if one of your passwords is sitting exposed in the SunCloudNew batch or any other dump.
