I purchased a theme on ThemeForest called “PodCaster” and when downloading it to my computer, my F-Secure caught two instances of malware in it. The author mentioned that the files affected are in the Redux plugin folder. the malware report from F-Secure shows that to be the case. I thought you’d appreciate knowing about the issue. here is the scanning report from F-Secure showing Redux.
