Amazon.com-backed (AMZN) Anthropic's Claude Code was flagged by China's National Vulnerability Database over an alleged security "backdoor" risk in versions 2.1.91 through 2.1.196, Reuters reported Wednesday.

The agency advised users to uninstall the affected versions or upgrade to the latest release and urged organizations to strengthen network monitoring to help prevent unauthorized data transfers, the report said.

Reuters noted that Alibaba (BABA) recently banned employees from using Claude Code at work after the tool came under scrutiny for features that could identify China-linked users.

Anthropic did not immediately respond to requests for comment from MT Newswires.
