That does not look ok. Do you have a sys admin or do you manage the server yourself?

Have you looked at /tmp to see what's in there? Whatever it is, it's certainly not normal.
I would put the files in a quarantined state (maldet –quarantine $SCANID) and have a look at their contents before simply deleting everything out of your /tmp. When was the last time you ran a full maldet update?

Hi,
The result you got from the maldet shows that the files that were upload temporarily in the /tmp folder for process execution are infected with malicious codes.
These files should be removed or quarantined immediately. Those are webserver and PHP session and caching files. You could safely remove them.

Hi,
its quite difficult to analyse this with just looking in to the log entries. However you can try opening them and check the file itself to see if there is any entries regarding any domain in them which indicate that its uploaded through that domain to the server.

Hi,
You can check the quarantine folder and do a list of files and check the owner of the file, whether it was upload by certain user or by user named "nobody." This will clear some of the things. Additionally, try using stats command to check the file statistics and see if any information you can get on it.
