WordFence false positives?

Hi I have a presta shop on the same server as my wordpress site. I am either getting false positives on my wordpress security scanner or there is an issue.

here is what it thinks is the issue.

the picture of the results

The details align with any hacking 101 course knowledge

Details: This file is a PHP executable file and contains the word "eval" (without quotes) and the word "base64_decode(" (without quotes). The eval() function along with an encoding function like the one mentioned are commonly used by hackers to hide their code. If you know about this file you can choose to ignore it to exclude it from future scans. This file was detected because you have enabled HIGH SENSITIVITY scanning. This option is more aggressive than the usual scans, and may cause false positives.

Any thoughts?
