VIP_ULP Stealer Log Exposes Exactly 190,180 Login Credentials

In May 2026, a Telegram user uploaded a stealer log dump known as VIP_ULP, and when researchers dug through it they found something that should give anyone pause: 190,180 individual records sitting out in the open, free for anyone to grab. This wasn't a targeted attack on one company. It's the kind of quiet, unglamorous leak that happens constantly on Telegram channels, and it's exactly the sort of thing that slips past most people's radar until their own login shows up in it.

Why This Is Dangerous

What makes a leak like this so dangerous is how usable it is right out of the box. There's no need to crack a hash or guess a password when the file already hands over the plaintext password alongside the email and the exact URL it belongs to. A criminal doesn't have to be skilled to use this data, they just have to copy and paste. That "free for anyone" distribution model is what occured here, and it means the number of people who could potentially touch your credentials isn't limited to one hacker, it's whoever finds the channel.

What Was Exposed

• Email Addresses
• Plaintext Passwords
• URLs tied to each login
• 190,180 total records

Why This Matters

People definately underestimate how much damage a leaked email and password pair can do beyond the original site. Most of us reuse passwords, at least a little, across accounts. Once a criminal has one working combination, they will try it on email providers, banking portals, and social media, a technique called credential stuffing. A single line from this dump could open several doors if the person behind it never changed their habits.

How Stealer Logs Work

This particular breach type, a stealer log, comes from information-stealing malware that infects a computer, usually through a cracked software download or a fake browser update. Once installed, it quietly reaches into the browser's saved password vault, grabs autofill data, and packages it all into a text file. That file gets shipped straight to the attacker, often through an automated Telegram bot, which is why so many of these logs end up "uploaded by a Telegram user" instead of posted to a traditional hacking forum.
