Ubuntu weird process use 60-70 percent of the CPU












0















Recently I noticed that my VPS is doing a lot of work, I ran 'top' command and I saw a process with a weird name who using 60-70 percent of the CPU (I attached pictures).



When I kill those process the VPS seems to work fine.
What should I do in this situation?



How can I remove the process?



Thanks.

          readlink -f /proc/{PID}/exe will return the path of the process binary

          lsof -p {PID} will return where to look for investigation

          ClamAV antivirus can help too.
