    Hey @6161661gmailcom,

    It’s false-positive, curious – which plugin reports this?

    That file comes from the maxmind extension and i think it’s not required for the plugin to run. It will be removed in the next release to avoid false-positive issues like this with the so called “security” plugins.

    Best Regards,
    Darko

    Closing this as resolved.
