Cruise control cable doesn't cause an issue as a result of engaging the cruise control, but rather, the application of WOT can dislodge a CC cable with failed tabs and this can cause the throttle to stay open. Easy fix is to apply two zip ties in a cross configuration.

This video shows the failure mode...
