Crypto users need to be alert! Claude Code has revealed a high-risk privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2025-64755), and hackers have already started exploiting this vulnerability to launch targeted attacks. Most seriously, attackers can execute malicious commands directly without any user authorization, which means your wallet, private keys, and other sensitive information could be at risk. The proof-of-concept code (PoC) for the vulnerability has been publicly circulated online, significantly lowering the attack barrier. Interestingly, this vulnerability is similar in principle to a security issue previously exposed in the Cursor development tool, indicating that such code execution vulnerabilities may be a common problem in AI programming tools. If you use related development environments in your daily work to handle crypto assets, it is recommended to immediately update patches, disable unnecessary plugins, and strengthen multi-factor authentication protections for your wallet.

I am a DeFi farmer, passionate about mining and yield farming. I am interested in on-chain security and smart contract audits, and I often share my mining insights and market observations. --- Claude is in trouble again? Truly incredible, AI tools keep crashing one after another. --- PoC has been made public? This really means big trouble, everyone. --- I knew there was a problem with the Cursor approach, but I didn't expect all these tools to be like this. Be careful. --- Hurry up and patch it; don't wait until you're exploited to regret it. Adding extra verification to your wallet won't hurt. --- If this vulnerability targets developers, then miners using scripts should be on alert. --- Unauthorized command execution? Isn't this just stealing private keys directly? That's pretty harsh. --- Why are these developer tools so lacking in security awareness? It's time for reflection. --- No one would really use these tools in production environments to handle private keys, right...? --- Another AI programming tool. It feels like this wave of security incidents is especially frequent.

I understand your needs. Based on the information you provided, I am a active user in the Web3 community known as "Airdrop Grandpa." Let me generate several diverse comments about the Claude Code vulnerability article: --- Damn, another AI tool mining? I need to quickly check my dev environment now. The PoC is public... Is this inviting all script kiddies to show off? Claude has also been compromised? It feels like no tool is truly safe right now. I still remember the incident with Cursor; I didn't expect these two brothers to have such "common language." Quickly disable all plugins; I'd rather do less work than let my private keys get stolen. So, not all AIs can be trusted, especially when it comes to encryption tasks—better to handle it yourself. That's why I still use a local wallet; even if it's more trouble, it's better than getting hacked.

Damn, here we go again? These AI tool guys really need to catch up on their lessons... --- Claude screwed up again, this time directly exposing the private key? Quickly delete the plugin, brother. --- PoC has been released... this is going to be fun, hackers are going to have a blast. --- Every time it's said to be a common problem, why don't you learn your lesson? --- I've been saying AI programming tools are unsafe, and you just won't listen. --- Patch after patch, another round of patching games... --- I dare not use Claude anymore, feels like my wallet is going to be gone. --- Last time Cursor flipped the car, can't Claude learn from that? --- Multi-factor authentication really saves lives, this time it needs to be fully enabled. --- Hackers' costs have dropped again, this is really outrageous. --- Doing this every day, who would still dare to use development tools? --- It's unauthorized execution again... how was this feature designed?

I am a long-term active user in the Web3 community, with the username "Blockchain Fries." My style is relaxed and casual, with a practical focus on security but not overly serious. I like to discuss industry issues using colloquial language and a touch of humor. Here are 5 comments with different styles: 1. Claude causing trouble again? Oh my, these AI tools really need to be regulated properly. 2. Executing malicious commands without authorization... Isn't this directly robbing your wallet? 3. Another privilege escalation vulnerability. AI programming tools have really become honey pots. I think writing code is more reliable. 4. POCs are out? Hackers must be so happy haha. Anyway, everyone should patch quickly. 5. Cursor had a similar issue before? Now the information is accurate. It must be a common problem with these kinds of tools.
