Antivirus scanner found a threat ( Archive.Test.Agent2-9953724-0) - False positive?

I just started receiving several email notifications from the Antivirus scanner on ReadyNAS 6.10.7. The messages are similar to this:

 

Antivirus scanner found a threat ( Archive.Test.Agent2-9953724-0) in the file /usr/share/python-wheels/pip-1.5.6-py2.py3-none-any.whl. Please delete the infected file soon.

 

Looks like these are false positives in ClamAV and might be fixed through the next signature update.
