False Positive? Extension flagged as webdisco pup

Recommended Posts

I installed this extension from chrome a week ago after hearing about it on the PAX subreddit, its an extension to check for when PAX tickets are to go on sale, google store URL is https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pax-ticket-site-auto-laun/baidlhgloneedeeibiiflohiifbaophh

I am getting warnings in malware bytes that this is the PUP Web disco. 

 

Here's an excerpt of the log files from my app data directory:

Is this legit and this extension is the PUP malware or is this a false positive? Thanks.  Uninstalling the extension fixes the problem and the scan yields no other problems.
