Your Data May Be Compromised: NOVEMBER 24 Leak Has 28,085 Passwords

HEROIC analysts found a stealer log file, labeled NOVEMBER 24 - 1780 LOGS, uploaded to a public Telegram channel on December 19, 2022. The file contained 28,085 records pulled from infected devices, including email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the URLs of the accounts those credentials belong to.

Why Your Data May Already Be Compromised

The passwords in this file were captured in plaintext, so anyone who downloads it can use the credentials immediately with no cracking involved. Because each password is listed alongside the exact URL it unlocks, an attacker does not need to guess which site to target, they can go straight to it. If your information is part of this file, the compromise has already happened, the only open question is whether anyone has acted on it yet.

What Was Exposed in the NOVEMBER 24 Log

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

Why This Matters for the 28,085 Records Involved

Credentials this exposed are exactly what attackers feed into credential stuffing tools, testing the same email and password combination across banking, email, and social media platforms. Anyone whose information appears in this log faces a real risk of account takeover, and reused passwords widen that risk into identity theft and financial fraud on other accounts too.

How a Stealer Log Like NOVEMBER 24 Gets Made

Stealer logs come from infostealer malware that infects a device, often through a phishing email or a malicious download, and then quietly copies saved browser passwords, autofill data, and the sites they belong to. The malware bundles everything into a log file and sends it back to the operator running it. In this case, that operator uploaded the finished log directly to a Telegram channel, giving anyone in that channel immediate access to all 28,085 records.
