Summary

Hide ▲

Anthropic released Claude Code version 2.1.90 last week to fix a command-parsing flaw that could let user-configured deny rules silently stop applying when a command exceeded 50 subcommands. The issue mattered because a blocked command such as rm could run without restriction once it was preceded by enough harmless statements. The update formally closed the bypass in the AI coding agent that executes shell commands on developers' machines.
