New Vulnerability in GitHub Copilot, Cursor: Hackers Can Weaponize Code Agents
Pillar Security researchers have uncovered a dangerous new supply chain attack vector we've named "Rules File Backdoor." This technique enables hackers to silently compromise AI-generated code by injecting hidden malicious instructions into seemingly innocent configuration files used by Cursor and GitHub Copilot—the…
The Mojo language (by Modular, now Qualcomm) is now open-source
Four and a half years ago, Modular made a bet: AI would not run on one kind of silicon forever, and the software stack would need to be rearchitected for a world of heterogeneous hardware and increasingly complex AI workloads.
