Abstract generation in progress

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology’s Network Security Threats and Vulnerabilities Information Sharing Platform (NVDB) said it has recently detected a security backdoor risk in the AI programming tool Claude Code through monitoring, with serious potential harm, and urged relevant units and users to immediately carry out a comprehensive investigation.

The platform said that Claude Code, developed by the U.S. artificial intelligence company Anthropic, has a built-in monitoring mechanism that transmits sensitive information such as users’ geographic locations and identity identifiers to remote servers without users’ consent. The affected versions of Claude Code are 2.1.91 to 2.1.196.

The platform recommended that development terminals installed with the affected versions immediately uninstall them or upgrade to the latest secure version that has removed the relevant backdoor code; strengthen controls over external connection permissions and traffic monitoring for development tools within core business network segments to prevent sensitive data from being exported in violation of regulations.
