On Thursday, a tampered copy of Anthropic's Claude Code extension sat in Cursor's extension marketplace for about 11 hours. Cursor says at most 5,000 users downloaded it. Microsoft's analysis shows it tried to plant an SSH back door, open a reverse tunnel and survive restarts. We cover what it did, what's still unknown (including how the attacker got publishing access, how many machines ran it, and whether anything was stolen), and what to check on your own machine. Plus: Sam Altman calls home PC memory "quite terrible" use of DRAM, Apple passes Nvidia as the most valuable company, France votes for a per-gigabyte tax, an AI agent operates on a live mouse, user reports of Claude refusing game clones, a shared robots.txt opt-out for AI training, and two unconfirmed gaming reports. Chapters 0:00 A poisoned Claude Code update hit Cursor 3:53 Altman: your PC's RAM is "quite terrible" 4:56 Apple passes Nvidia again 5:53 France votes for a per-gigabyte tax 6:59 An AI agent operated on a live mouse 8:38 Claude stops cloning games (user reports) 9:24 One opt-out for AI training 10:12 Star Wars Jedi 3, reportedly close (unconfirmed) 10:46 Mario Kart World on PC (unconfirmed) 11:18 Wrap-up Notes - Cursor / Claude Code: still unknown. Nobody has said how the attacker got publishing access, whether Cursor's systems were breached, how many machines actually ran the code, or whether any credentials were stolen. Updating to a clean version does not remove what the malware wrote. If you can't rule it out, follow Cursor's and Microsoft's cleanup steps and rotate keys from a clean device. Anthropic says its own systems weren't compromised. - Claude game-clone refusals: based on user reports. Anthropic has not commented. - France: this is not law. It's an amendment adopted in the first reading of the 2027 budget, and it still goes to the Senate. - AI agent mouse surgery: not peer-reviewed. It's one mouse and one procedure, and no data has been published. - Star Wars Jedi 3: UNCONFIRMED. It's a single report (Wccftech, citing Jason Schreier). EA hasn't announced a reveal, a date or a window. - Mario Kart World on PC: UNCONFIRMED. It's a single report (Wccftech). The emulator is experimental. Sources 1.
