 * my hosting provider does malware scans of the hosting environment, after the 
   last update over the few days this has been found, is this a concern you have
   been compromised?
 * Post.php
    public_html/wp-content/plugins/blog2social/includes/Ajax/Post.php generic.
   stripslashes.base64.decode.post.0
 * Loader.php
    public_html/wp-content/plugins/blog2social/includes/Loader.php generic.
   stripslashes.base64.decode.post.0

 * Hello [@hmmcrunchy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hmmcrunchy/)
 * Thank you for reaching out.
 * This is a false positive. We can guarantee that our plugin on WordPress is 100%
   malware free.
    We are constantly checking everything to make sure that everyone
   can use Blog2Social safely.
 * It has come to our attention, that some tools seem to detect the stripslashes
   and base64 parts in the code as false positives. These are normal PHP functions
   that are necessary for Blog2Social to work and have been included in Blog2Social
   for years.
