the answer that i got:

The problem is not literally in the template, but the template saves files in folders / files that are part of Joomla. In the folders / files where they are stored are leaks. As it a template, the files will be used where the template is stored. Because the leaks are here the scan recognizes it as vulnerability. The cause of the problem lies in Joomla itself in combination with the storage location of certain files from the template.

Yes, you can delete these files. It's not problem with template.
