AnyDesk disclosed a mid-January compromise of its production systems discovered during a security audit; the company revoked code-signing certificates, reset portal passwords, and recommended users update to the latest official builds. Cybercriminals subsequently advertised 18,317 AnyDesk customer accounts for sale, potentially enabling support-scams or phishing, but AnyDesk states it has found no evidence of malicious code distribution or affected end-user systems.
