The Trident_Cloud Leak: 34,514 Passwords Exposed. Yours Might Be One.

The "Trident_Cloud" Stealer Log Exposed 34,514 Records

HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log file labeled "Trident_Cloud" that was uploaded to a Telegram channel on June 22, 2024. The file contained 34,514 records pulled directly from infected devices, pairing email addresses with plaintext passwords and the URLs of the accounts those credentials belong to.

Why This Is Dangerous

Because the passwords in this log are stored in plaintext, anyone who obtains the file can use them immediately. Matched with the correct email address and the URL of the account it unlocks, an attacker needs no cracking tools and no guesswork to gain access.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• Account and login URLs

Why This Matters

With 34,514 records exposed, this is one of the larger stealer logs HEROIC has tracked from this source. Because so many people reuse the same password across multiple accounts, a single exposed plaintext password can unlock email, banking, and social media accounts far beyond the one it was stolen from. Attackers use logs like this for credential stuffing, and that reuse is exactly what turns a leak into financial fraud and identity theft.

How Stealer Logs Work

Stealer logs are produced by infostealer malware, which infects a device and quietly copies saved browser passwords, autofill entries, and session data before sending them to the attacker operating it. The stolen data is then bundled into files like "Trident_Cloud" and distributed through channels such as Telegram. Because the malware collects credentials directly from the device, one log can expose access to many unrelated accounts and services at the same time.
