Numerous "mughthesec" detected

I'm a user of Sophos Central Endpoint 10.0.0 on Mac (macOS Catalina 10.15.7).
There are numerous detections of the so-called "mughthesec" every day (see attached screenshots for example). It's very worrying if those mughthesec are harmful, or if they are harmless then these detection warnings are very distracting. They are mostly under /private/tmp/ directory. It's very time-consuming to manually delete them one by one.
I want to know what they are? How do I automatically clean them up?

  • Hi Shweta, thanks for responding. I'm pretty sure they require manual deletion. And these "Mughthesec" are newly and continuously produced every day, even after a full system scan. It's been very distracting. Can you offer some help on this situation?
