Malware alert on Ajax Search Pro

[conceptstore]

Hello,

We upgraded to the latest version of Ajax Search pro last week and this week (Sunday) Wordfence has highlited a critial problem with the plugin suggesting it contains mailware.

This is what is comes up with:
“This email was sent from your website “GAiT.Global” by the Wordfence plugin.
Wordfence found the following new issues on “GAiT.Global”.
Alert generated at Sunday 2nd of September 2018 at 02:15:03 AM

See the details of these scan results on your site at: http://www.gait.global/wp-admin/admin.php?page=WordfenceScan

Critical Problems:

* File contains suspected malware URL: wp-content/plugins/ajax-search-pro/includes/classes/etc/class-mobiledetect.php

http://www.vonino.eu/tablets”

Is this an issue?.

Please do let me know.

Hi,

You can safely ignore this message, it is only a false positive. WordFence detects a commented section within one of the external classes that references that URL.

I will upload a hotfix later, where this unused commented section is removed. WordFence devs will probably have to change their filter as well, since this class is widely used among other plugins as well.
