Hi emorasoul, I can't say why but it's coming from the malware detection plugin. As the plugin is marked for deprecation, we'll probably don't invest a lot into investigation but we'll look if we can make sense of the message.

It seems other people had similar problems with ClamAV and were able to resolve them: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1170774/clamav-clamd-ctl-file-is-not-getting-created-on-ubuntu

Incidentally "resolved" by removal of the malware scanner plugin #732
