Is there a new issue with WP Super Cache plugin? I received a warning from Wordfence on two of my sites about a suspected malware URL in the readme.txt file. I wasn't using it and deleted the plugin.

Here's the text from the Wordfence scan:

File contains suspected malware URL: /wp-content/plugins/wp-super-cache/readme.txt

Filename: wp-content/plugins/wp-super-cache/readme.txt
Bad URL: (DELETED: I DON'T WANT TO SEND YOU THERE!)
File type: Not a core, theme or plugin file.
Issue first detected: 6 secs ago.
Severity: Critical
Status New

This file contains a suspected malware URL listed on Google's list of malware sites. Wordfence decodes base64 when scanning files so the URL may not be visible if you view this file. The URL is: (DELETED: I DON'T WANT TO SEND YOU THERE!) - More info available at Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page.

I followed the link to the Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page and there were current issues.
