Unknown · Cursor Ide · CVE-2025-59944
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Cursor versions 1.6.23 and below
**Description**
Cursor IDE has case-sensitive checks when protecting sensitive files, such as `/.cursor/mcp.json`. This allows attackers to modify these files through prompt injection, potentially leading to remote code execution (RCE). This is possible on case-insensitive file systems. A prompt injection can result in full RCE by modifying sensitive files.
**Recommendations**
Update to version 1.7 or later.
