Anthropic confirms new Claude Code limits to prevent game cloning, users report blocking reverse engineering tasks

What the coverage shows

Both outlets frame the story as a malicious compromise involving Claude Code on Cursor, but BleepingComputer gives the fuller account with the reported 11-hour distribution window, up to 5,000 developers exposed, and the backdoor detail. The Register is shorter and more cautious, saying only that Claudeshop points to a “malicious actor” in a targeted supply-chain attack on Cursor.
