 * Hello, the security plugin “WP Hide & Security Enhancer” says that the file **
   burst-statistics-endpoint.php **is a PHP executablefile, a dangerous file which
   may contain valuable pieces of information regarding my environment. Any idea
   to avoid this security issue or security alert?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fburst-statistics-endpoint-php-is-a-executable-php-file%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@whichtransfers](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whichtransfers/),
 * This is a false positive. The endpoint does not contain or publish information.
   It is part of Burst Statistics, and ensures that visits on your website are stored
   in the database. It cannot be used for other purposes than tracking visits.
 * To avoid the alert you can contact the developer of the plugin that generates
   the alert and ask them to update their plugin accordingly.
