Paris prosecutors and ANSSI investigate large-scale cyberattack on French food retailers
Investigation
The Paris prosecutor's office opened an investigation into what it described as a 'large-scale' cyberattack affecting connected refrigerators at several major French food retailers, saying investigators would identify the victims and establish links between the attack and reported damage including food losses and fires. Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu tasked the cybersecurity agency ANSSI with examining the incident and coordinating with European counterparts; Reuters reported ANSSI had identified a vulnerability in Danfoss software, though reporting does not establish whether the documented flaws were exploited.
