com_joomlaupdate/config.php base64 detected

Post by miraiserver » Tue Nov 11, 2014 2:13 am

Dear Joomla friends.

In one of my Joomla sited the Server Antivirus said that has detected a posible base64 inclusion.

The result of the scan is like this:
----------
administrator/components/com_joomlaupdate/config.php: {PYX}.eval.base64.variable.susp.FOUND
----------

Anyone knows if this is a false alarm or I should take action on this file?


Thank you for your help.

administrator/components/com_joomlaupdate/config.php
There is no such file in any of my Joomla installations.
