Security researchers Andre Hall and Miller Engelbrecht from 0DIN have demonstrated a novel attack vector targeting Claude Code. By tricking a user into opening a malicious repository within Claude Code and instructing the AI assistant to run the project, attackers could establish a reverse shell, gaining remote access to the victim's computer. The exploit leverages the AI's execution capabilities rather than embedding malicious code directly into the repository. AI
