After scanneing, I get 3 HIGH SEVERITY files.
The system itself says: "required file - uwe clean, not delete".
So I selct the file (index.php), and click the "clean selected"-button.

reason: Core file checksum mismatch — this file's content does not match the official Joomla 5.4.7 release byte-for-byte (expected sha256 bba2171c2b43…, found 760340df54e7…). This is direct, unambiguous evidence of tampering, not a heuristic guess.

error code: SKIPPED (no auto-cleanable pattern recognized here -- review the Code Issues details and clean manually): index.php

Hi,

Take Joomla 5.7 installer package, and override all files with 100% trusted ones.

Our component cannot delete index.php otherwise Joomla would crash.

I re-installed the code files

Main index.php file is often a target for hackers, and if it's bigger than 1,5 Kb, something is wrong.
