I use Linux and ran the clamav antivirus with the fangfrisch database to check for malware and I believe this is a mistaken flagging of the extension if this can be confirmed that would be great Ozzy

This is a false positive scenario, that may appear because the amount of javascript files within the plugin or the fact that it contains files named xxxx.yyyy.js ( seeing the files as double extension and triggering the false positive ) as you can see here : https://sanesecurity.com/foxhole-databases/
