Anthropic have been hacked to deliver remote access malware to millions of endpoints who use Claude Code.
That would be soooooo funny.
Now all it needs is that the engineer at Binance who reportedly got hacked also got his NFTs stolen.
Excuse me? What happened to the mythical cybersecurity abilities of Claude Mythos? Physician, cure thyself!
Now we see Anthropic's attitude towards security when the incident does not make for good marketing. Also, considering Binance was just hacked for a massive $3B in stablecoins, and this backdoor allowed remote access to developer laptops, I have a feeling these things are connected. If that is true, then this is by far the worst cybersecurity incident involving AI, worse than even the much ballyhooed PHP2Shell.
Edit: From Molly White's article
Okay, now I am really suspicious that these things are connected.
Imagine being a NK hacker rooting machines via Claude and then you discover you are on an Binance engineers machine.
