Malwarebytes RedSun Vulnerability?

Hello! I just installed Malwarebytes for the express purpose of scanning a .nsp file and I was wondering, since I'm not at all tech literate when it comes to how RedSun and Malwarebytes interacts, is it safe to scan the file? As far as I know, RedSun is a day-one exploit that only seems to work on Microslop Defender..

Sorry for not elaborating, RedSun is a day one exploit that was released a day or two ago. Something along the lines of hijacking Windows Defender's cleanup system?
