OpenCode (Anomaly), disclosed 17 Oct 2026 Unknown Data exposed High

What happened

OpenCode said an intruder reached its hosted Console overnight into 17 October. Provider API keys of about 1.4 percent of Console users may have been exposed, and some users reported unauthorized charges on their AI accounts. OpenCode describes it as a large-scale distillation attack.

OpenCode is an open-source AI coding agent. Its Console is a hosted service where some users store third-party AI provider keys. OpenCode announced the breach on Saturday 17 October, and BleepingComputer gives 00:30 UTC that day as the earliest possible key exposure. OpenCode emailed affected users and told them to revoke and replace their provider keys, saying anyone without an email was not affected.

Users reported unauthorized charges from several hundred dollars to more than 1,700 dollars across OpenAI, Anthropic and Google accounts, and Google suspended some projects. OpenCode said attackers had been targeting its systems for at least 48 hours using AI agents. It has not said how the intruder got in or how many keys it held.
