Universe_Logs 500 Cloud Logs uploaded by a Telegram User

We're seeing an uptick in stealer logs surfacing on Telegram channels, but it’s not just the volume that's concerning. We first noticed this trend when a user shared a file labeled **"Universe_Logs"** containing what appeared to be cloud infrastructure logs. What really struck us wasn't the number of records, but the potential insight into cloud environments and API access. This breach, while smaller in scale than some others we've seen, offered a concerning glimpse into the type of data being targeted by credential stealers and the marketplaces where they are being traded.

Leaked Cloud Logs Expose 8.2K Credentials on Telegram

A Telegram user uploaded a stealer log file in November 2025, exposing 8,228 records of endpoints, email addresses, API hosts, and passwords. The file, named "Universe_Logs", immediately caught our attention due to its focus on cloud-related information. The data appeared to be harvested from compromised systems, likely through malware designed to extract credentials and other sensitive information. The breach matters to enterprises because it highlights the ongoing threat posed by stealer logs and the ease with which they can be disseminated on platforms like Telegram, potentially leading to unauthorized access to cloud infrastructure and sensitive data.

• Total records exposed: 8,228
• Types of data included: Email Addresses, Plaintext Passwords, URLs, API host
• Sensitive content types: Cloud infrastructure logs, potentially including API keys or access tokens.
• Source structure: Stealer log file.
• Leak location(s): Telegram channel.

The proliferation of stealer logs on Telegram and similar platforms is a growing concern. Threat actors are increasingly using these channels to buy, sell, and share compromised credentials, making it easier for them to launch attacks against organizations. Security researchers have documented the use of Telegram channels for the distribution of malware and stolen data, highlighting the platform's role in the cybercrime ecosystem. A recent report by Cybersecurity firm Recorded Future detailed how Telegram channels are used to facilitate the sale of stealer logs obtained from various malware campaigns.
