It's 100% a bad signature and should get removed. 

I just checked the current version of the akismet plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/akismet/) from WordPress and it is detected by this signature but by nothing else:

https://virusscan.jotti.org/en-US/filescanjob/00ecsxf7es

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/8ae9cc337449fd0daa82e3f1c329689ecc4de8905244f97e401be6fe3af33704

A month ago, this file wasn't detected by anything.

I came in to work to find almost 2000 hits from this signature on zip files ranging from WordPress plugins to zipped up log directories.

The signature is mentioned in this morning's automated email from the
ClamAV signatures database update process.

I suspect that you're seeing a false positive, that's always a risk
with new or updated signatures.

Perhaps you can upload one of the flagged files to e.g. Jotti's Virus
Scan or VirusTotal to see what a few other scanners make of it.
