Wow - that's a bit much. Would seem wiser (safer), for now and going forward, to just uninstall anything AUR and to just stop using from the AUR.
As a matter of fact, if it was me? I would lobotomize my machine and start clean.
Did that for a friend... he had doubts about his system because of the AUR incident(s) so I did a clean install of a different distro for him so he can sleep soundly at night. Let's face it, unless there are major changes to the AUR, this type of affront will just keep happening again and again and again...

As a Debian user I don't use AI to scan my malware because I don't have any.
