BlockBeats News, April 21, Chief Information Security Officer 23pds from Slow Fog posted on platform X to remind that Claude Desktop was reported to secretly write browser backdoor files.

It is reported that when users install the Claude Desktop application, it writes a special file to all Chromium-based browsers on the computer without the user's knowledge. This file acts as a pre-authorized backdoor, which, when used in conjunction with specific browser extensions, can gain complete control over the user's browser.
