Suspected attacks on remotely managed refrigeration systems have affected supermarket chains in Belgium, Sweden, Luxembourg and Estonia, according to local reports cited by Bloomberg◼ and Reuters. An ICA◼ Kvantum store in Sweden reported that setpoints were raised remotely to 50°C overnight, and Coop confirmed that unauthorised actors accessed systems, though the full statement is truncated in the source. No CVEs, affected firmware or vendors are named in the material provided.
