Account Takeover Just Got Easier Because of Universe_Logs Cloud Logs Part 2: 32,981 at Risk

HEROIC analysts discovered the Universe_Logs 4450 Cloud Logs Part 2 stealer log distributed via Telegram in March 2026. The file contained 32,981 records harvested from infected devices across the United States. Each record included an email address, a plaintext password, and URLs showing which cloud services were actively in use on the compromised machines. This second installment from the Universe_Logs operation is the largest batch in the series confirmed to date.

Why This Is Dangerous

With 32,981 records, Cloud Logs Part 2 is a high-volume credential set. The cloud service focus means these accounts often connect to business tools, file storage, email platforms, and payment systems. Every plaintext password in this file removes any technical barrier between the attacker and a working login. The scale of this batch means it was likely distributed widely, increasing the number of actors who may have already used these credentials.

What Was Exposed

The following data types were confirmed in the Universe_Logs 4450 Cloud Logs Part 2 stealer log:

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs (indicating which cloud-connected services were accessed on infected devices)

Why This Matters

At 32,981 records, this is a large enough dataset to support automated credential stuffing campaigns targeting multiple cloud platforms simultaneously. Once attackers gain access to a cloud account, they can access stored files, read emails, harvest contact lists, and pivot into connected services. For business users, a single compromised cloud login can expose company data, client records, and internal systems. The combination of account takeover, identity theft, and financial fraud risk makes this one of the more consequential stealer logs in the Universe_Logs series. Victims are unlikely to know they are exposed unless they actively check.

How Universe_Logs Cloud Logs Part 2 Was Created and Distributed

Infostealer malware forms the foundation of operations like Universe_Logs. Once installed on a victim's device through a phishing email, malicious download, or compromised browser extension, the malware runs silently, capturing browser-saved passwords, session cookies, and the URLs of every service the user accesses. This data is packaged into structured log files. The Universe_Logs operation organized these files into a numbered cloud-focused series and distributed them through private Telegram channels. Part 2 represents the second batch in this series, containing nearly 33,000 credential sets ready for immediate use by whoever obtained the file.
