Cursor Claude Code malware: check SSH keys

Action needed: a tampered Claude Code extension in Cursor’s extension marketplace tries to plant an SSH backdoor. Cursor’s Oct 29, 2026 notice says versions 2.1.312 and 2.1.313 were not made by Anthropic and were live from about 5:27 a.m. to 4:35 p.m. ET that day.

If you installed or updated either in that window, check for the svc-telemetry key now.
