oh it's worse, apparently research by @doublepulsar.com says that it was a spearfishing attack, they popped the VScode extension just to do this one attack.

vscode extensions too cheap to meter

I had Claude write a bespoke vscode extension for working on this one specific repo. Worked pretty well 👍

Don't make me turn this car around, Claude Code. I'll run the project myself in vscode! I still have fingers, you know.

How else does one manage their crypto?

(I'm not a vscode user btw I am a massive hater)

Anthropic themselves directly published updates overnight on OpenVSX and VSCode Marketplace which were 'fixed', so they knew something had gone on (the updates contained no other changes)... they just forgot to tell anybody.

Phorion has detected a backdoor in the official Claude Code for VS Code extension bundle on the Cursor Marketplace that drops a persistent SSH backdoor across macOS, Linux, and Windows.

(Claude Code and VSCode: malware alert!)

today i've installed five programs across two computers including an open-source version of VSCode and i've edited exactly Zero webpages. this webdev shit is easy as hell

No. I don’t even use the VSCode integrated commands. All CLI
October 31, 2026 at 7:16 PM
Also *very* interested if this applies to the vanilla VSCode version of this plugin

oh this one at least isn’t a Wayland ssssion. It’s literally vscode rendered in the browser lol

How did I develop this game? I developed it in VSCODE and yes I did use AI to develop it. Like almost all code written today, developers use AI to assist them in developing.

Es kam wie es kommen musste: die offizielle Claude Extension für VSCode ist compromised und hat SSH backdoors eingebaut.

Von vibe coder, für vibe coder, wie die Faust aufs Auge.

Wenn ihr das verwendet, checkt bitte eure Machinen.

I'm always amused by all the places I find `backdrop-blur` these days. Today's case: The VSCode diff viewer!

(the office will let me install vscode but will not permit me to install the python extension for vscode. so vscode is functionally useless. IT plz help)

As I understand it, Cursor proxies Open VSX for their VSCode marketplace

vindicated in my fear of vscode extensions since the first incidents
