China's National Vulnerability Database warned developers to uninstall or upgrade Anthropic's Claude Code versions 2.1.91–2.1.196, alleging a 'backdoor' monitoring mechanism that could collect user identity and location and forward them to remote servers; Anthropic removed the mechanism in version 2.1.198 and the advisory recommends immediate investigation and tightened access controls.
