3CX's desktop application (3CXDesktopApp) was compromised in a supply-chain attack that trojanized official installers for Windows and macOS (multiple specific versions listed), enabling multi-stage malicious activity; CrowdStrike confirmed the compromise and EDR vendors observed quarantines beginning March 22, 2023. The report highlights the broad potential impact given 3CX's large user base, recommends immediate mitigations (use the PWA instead of the desktop app, apply updates, block known IOCs), and describes monitoring and detection actions taken by responders.
