TOR_LOG MIX 416PCS: 4,667 Records Leaked Since Feb 2024

Back in February 2024, a Telegram user quietly uploaded a stealer log file called "TOR_LOG MIX 416PCS." For months it sat largely unnoticed among thousands of similar files traded on the same channels. HEROIC analysts have now flagged the file, confirming it holds 4,667 records of email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the exact site URLs those logins belong to, credentials that have effectively been circulating in the open for over two years.

Why This Two-Year-Old Leak Still Matters

The biggest danger with a delayed discovery like this one is time. The longer stolen credentials sit undetected, the more chances attackers have had to test them, resell them, or bundle them into larger combo lists. Many of the people in this file have likely used the same email and passsword combination on other accounts since 2024, without ever knowing it was compromised.

Passwords stored in plaintext make this even worse. There is no encryption standing between an attacker and instant access.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs of the associated login pages

Why This Matters

A leak that has been sitting quietly for two years is often more dangerous than a fresh one. It has had time to spread across multiple criminal forums, get merged into other combo lists, and get tested through credential stuffing tools again and again. If a password from this file was never changed, it may still be actively unlocking accounts today.

Account takeover, financial fraud, and identity theft are all real possibilities once attackers confirm a login still works.

How Stealer Logs Work

Stealer logs come from infostealer malware, small programs that infect a device through a fake download, cracked software, or malicious attachment. Once running, the malware quitely harvests saved browser passwords, autofill data, and cookies, then packages everything into a log file.

These files are then shared, sold, or dumped for free on Telegram, exactly the kind of channel where TOR_LOG MIX 416PCS was found. Because the malware runs in the background, victims usually have no idea their machine was ever infected.
