OpenCode, an open-source AI coding agent that has been gaining ground among developers as an alternative to Claude Code and Cursor, said Saturday that attackers broke into an older system overnight, affecting 1.4% of users of its online platform, OpenCode Console, where some users store the API keys, or digital passwords, they use to access AI services.
As the OpenCode team struggled to keep pace with the attack, the scramble to respond highlighted a growing problem: companies without vetted access to AI models with fewer safety restrictions have a hard time defending against large-scale, AI-driven cyberattacks.
