Cursor SSH Connect to host is broken

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

I am trying to connect through SSH with Cursor.
During the setup phase of the SSH connection, Cursor tries to install vscode on the server, but the link it is using is broken

Log from the SSH Output in Cursor:

Downloading with wget
[18:15:29.106] > wget download failed

Steps to Reproduce

Connect to Host using SSH inside cursor.
This will only happen if the vscode installation server-side is not cached yet.

Operating System

Windows 10/11

Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)

Version: 1.7.46 (system setup)
