Cursor Security Bug Allowed Repositories to Execute Commands Before Trust Verification

Cursor patched a vulnerability that allowed repositories to execute commands prior to trust verification. The issue was resolved within three days, and the security report was subsequently closed as informative.

Why it matters: Developers using Cursor for code editing faced risk of arbitrary command execution from untrusted repositories, making prompt patching critical for those who may have opened potentially malicious projects.
