Sounds like you're fine. From what I can find out it's a fairly recent Uplay update that opened the vulnerability - I've not fired up 5 for a month or so and I don't have the problem file. And removing or disabling the browser plugins solves the problem immediately, so it's easily avoided.
It is pretty awful that browser plugins and the like are installed without the user's knowledge, but then what do we expect from Ubi? I can't see the point in letting it get in the way of the good work being done for SH5, so I won't be uninstalling the game itself.
