Snyk Research Labs regularly contributes back to the community with testing and research of common software packages. This particular research into Cursor was not intended to be malicious and included Snyk Research Labs and the contact information of the researcher. We were very specifically looking at dependency confusion in some VS Code extensions. The packages would not be installed directly by a developer.
