Russian-speaking hackers allegedly used SpaceX’s AI coding assistant, Cursor, to support an intrusion into a Belgian chemical company and at least six other firms earlier this year, per data reviewed by Reuters and a Gambit Security report. The incident underscores rising risk from AI-assisted tooling in cyberattacks, with potential near-term reputational and compliance pressure for affected companies.
