How a Stealer Log Led to 11,061 Stolen Trident_Cloud Logins

HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log dataset labeled "Trident_Cloud" uploaded to a public Telegram channel, tied to a leak date of December 25, 2024. The file contains 11,061 records, each pairing an email address with a plaintext password and the URL of the account it was used on. This leak did not start with a hacked server, it started with malware quietly running on ordinary people's computers, one infection at a time, until enough stolen logins had piled up to fill a file worth uploading.

Why This Is Dangerous

Because the malware captured these credentials directly as victims typed them, the passwords sit in the file in plaintext, with no hashing or encryption for an attacker to work around. That means every one of the 11,061 email and password pairs is ready to use the moment someone opens the file, against the exact site it was captured from or any other service where the password might be reused.

What Was Exposed in the Trident_Cloud Leak

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs of the accounts and services accessed

Why This Matters

A batch of 11,061 working login pairs gives attackers everything they need to run credential stuffing attacks, automatically testing each combination against email providers, banks, and online retailers. Anyone who reused a password appearing in this leak risks account takeover, and from there, identity theft and financial fraud follow quickly once an attacker gains control of an email inbox that can reset passwords elsewhere.

How Stealer Logs Work

It starts with a single click: a cracked software download, a fake installer, or a phishing link that quietly installs information-stealing malware on a victim's device. From there, the malware copies every password saved in the browser along with the site each one belongs to, then sends the results back to whoever is controlling it. Once enough data accumulates, the operator packages it into a log file, exactly like the one behind this leak, and shares it on a Telegram channel where anyone can download it.

Check If You Are Affected

With 11,061 credentials from this leak already circulating, it is worth checking your own exposure now. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your email against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, so you can find out quickly and change any compromised passwords before someone else uses them.
