CVE-2026-26268: Cursor's AI agent autonomously executes malicious Git hooks from cloned repos. Nobody clicked anything. Nobody approved anything. The agent decided to run git checkout, and a hidden pre-commit hook fired.

This is incident #10 in the April 2026 AI agent vulnerability cluster.

The Git hooks are not the vulnerability. The agent that runs them without asking is.
