This is a false positive right?

So after doing a routine scan I got this:

Filename: wp-content/plugins/td-composer/includes/tdc_ajax.php

File Type: Not a core, theme, or plugin file from wordpress.org.

Details: This file is a PHP executable file and contains the word “eval” (without quotes) and the word “base64_decode(” (without quotes). The eval() function along with an encoding function like the one mentioned are commonly used by hackers to hide their code. If you know about this file you can choose to ignore it to exclude it from future scans. This file was detected because you have enabled HIGH SENSITIVITY scanning. This option is more aggressive than the usual scans, and may cause false positives.

I checked the file, it looked clean but just thought I confirm with you guys.

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes, false positive.
We also check the theme and tagdiv plugins files before any update.

Thanks!
