 * [@benixgo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/benixgo/) It looks like Sucuri
   is reading this plugin’s integration files as if they were the actual plugins
   they’re named after.
 * Taking this one for example:
 * > vulnerable Jetpack plugin found at ./wp-content/plugins/gamipress/integrations/
   > jetpack/jetpack.php – Version: 1.0.0 Please update this plugin immediately:
   > [https://jetpack.com/blog/jetpack-12-1-1-critical-security-update/](https://jetpack.com/blog/jetpack-12-1-1-critical-security-update/)
 * If you were indeed using Jetpack 1.0.0 that would indeed be very bad. As the 
   link mentions, there is a security vulnerability with Jetpack 12.1.1 and lower.
 * But, you don’t have to worry. The current version of [Jetpack](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/)
   is 13.9, has no known vulnerabilities, and the file in question is just version
   1.0.0 of [GamiPress’s Jetpack integration](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/gamipress/tags/7.1.1/integrations/jetpack/jetpack.php),
   which is, crucially, not the Jetpack plugin.
 * [@gamipress](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gamipress/) You might want to
   consider renaming those files, so something like this doesn’t happen.

 * Hi [@macmanx](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) 
   I’m Ruben, CEO at
   GamiPress & AutomatorWP
 * We do not know why Sucuri stills working with those files since they are not 
   in the main directory where the plugin file should be placed
   We reported it several
   times to Sucuri to do not check files in subfolders as the main one, other security
   plugins already fixed it but seems that Sucuri is still working on this fix yet…

 * These security scanners are blunt instruments, they can only be as smart as their
   developers make them.
 * I can guess why Sucuri thought that `/wp-content/plugins/gamipress/integrations/
   jetpack/jetpack.php` was `/wp-content/plugins/jetpack/jetpack.php`
 * It’s annoying, it should be fixed on Sucuri’s end, but it is plausible.
 * I think the only effective way forward, or at least the only way forward in your
   control, is to rename the files themselves, like `/integrations/jetpack/jetpack.
   php` to `/integrations/jetpack/gamipress-jetpack.php`
 * I know that’s a fair bit of work, but the confusion amongst your existing and
   future users will continue until either you do that or Sucuri finally fixes their
   scanner, and you can only control your own stuff.

 * Ok that’s what I thought, thanks for the quick answers guys, I will also open
   a ticket with Sucuri, hope that helps!
