Carrefour reported that hackers affected refrigeration units in 80 of its roughly 6,000 stores. Monoprix said about 5% of its more than 400 stores were hit, and affected food was pulled from shelves where its safe condition could not be confirmed.
Attackers remotely triggered automatic defrosting functions in Danfoss refrigeration controllers overnight, raising fridge temperatures at an estimated 250 to 350 stores across chains including Intermarché, Coopérative U, Carrefour Market, Monoprix, Leclerc and Super U. Coopérative U president Dominique Schelcher confirmed the incident, saying teams were working with refrigeration specialists to resolve it, while the Paris prosecutor's office opened an investigation into food losses and reported fires linked to the attack.
