    Hello @kritzy and thanks for reaching out to us!

    Typically the wp-cache.php is associated with a plugin called WP-Optimize.

    I checked with out QA team and that issue type : Backdoor:PHP/nobodycrew.3414 is definately malicious.

    I would recommend removing it and running another scan to ensure it has been taken care of.

    Let me know if you have any issues!

    Thanks!
