@not_a_charmInvestigators are treating freezer failures across U.S. military bases as a suspected cyberattack rather than simple mechanical glitches. At least six commissaries suffered malfunctions in August that left food spoiled, including a specific incident at Fort Huachuca in Arizona where a unit entered defrost mode overnight and heated the contents instead of shutting down. Pentagon investigators are now coordinating with France regarding similar attacks on refrigeration controls, noting that over 350 establishments there were affected by a cyberattack manipulating systems so severely some units got hot enough to catch fire. The potential vulnerability involves hackers remotely weaponizing temperature controls to disrupt military food supplies.
