FYI to all the VS Code peeps out there that malicious extensions can gain access to secrets stored by other VS Code extensions as well as the tokens used by VS Code for Microsoft/Github.
I really don’t understand how Microsoft’s official stance on this is that this is working as intended…
If you weren’t already, be very careful about which extensions you are installing.
You must log in or register to comment.
So what? Malicious extensions can do anything. Don’t run untrusted code on any computer you care about, ever. This is true for any IDE extension, any NPM package, any mod pack, etc.
