Brief
OpenCode, an open-source AI coding agent, suffered a breach that allowed attackers to steal some users’ API keys. TechCrunch reports the attackers used those keys to run up charges while some AI tools refused to inspect the malicious code.
Why It Matters
Compromised API keys can lead to unexpected costs and erosion of trust in third-party AI coding tools.
