Cline v3.87.0 Adds MiniMax M3 Support, Patches 5 Security Vulnerabilities
Cline, the open-source AI coding assistant VS Code extension, released v3.87.0 on June 3, 2025, adding support for MiniMax's M3 model and addressing multiple security issues.
What Changed
The release adds integration with MiniMax M3, a multimodal model from Chinese AI company MiniMax. Cline users can now select M3 alongside existing provider options including Claude, GPT-4, and other supported models.
The security updates resolve vulnerabilities in five packages:
- @xmldom/xmldom
- basic-ftp
- axios
- undici
- Additional direct and transitive dependencies
Cline updated its VS Code extension dependencies to address these security issues, though specific CVE numbers were not disclosed in the release notes.
About Cline
Cline is a fork of the Claude Dev project that enables AI-assisted coding directly in VS Code. The extension supports autonomous code editing, terminal command execution, and browser automation. It works with multiple LLM providers through a provider-agnostic architecture.
The project has 19 commits to main since this release, indicating active development continues.
What This Means
MiniMax M3 support expands Cline's model options beyond Western providers, giving developers access to Chinese frontier models. This follows a pattern of coding assistants adding regional model support as non-US AI companies release competitive alternatives.
The security patches address dependency vulnerabilities that could affect the 100,000+ developers using Cline. Users should update to v3.87.0 to resolve these issues, particularly if their development environments have strict security requirements.
