CPUID & HWMonitor Compromised

Igorslab is reporting CPUID and HWMonitor downloads were both compromised and a .dll file is delivering a nasty virus. The official product page does not display an unusual filename, but rather the standard download path for the setup version, while the ZIP version links directly to a Cloudflare R2 domain. Clicking the setup link takes you to a separate CPUID download page, which explicitly states that the file “hwmonitor_1.63.exe” is ready and that the actual download will then take place via download.cpuid.com. This setup is interesting in itself because it does not consist of a single, consistently identical download path. At the same time, reports have been circulating in the community since today—primarily on Reddit—stating that users did not receive the expected file hwmonitor_1.63.exe upon download, but rather an installer named HWiNFO_Monitor_Setup.exe.
If you have downloaded either of these programmes it's time to get busy with a (number of) virus scan and removal tools.
