'gir1.2-vte+' process using cpu 100% and memory 94%
« on: May 08, 2021, 09:07:29 PM »
Hi,
I'm suddenly seeing a process 'gir1.2-vte+' using cpu 100% and and ram 94%. I'm using Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v4 @ 2.20GHz processor and 8gb ram. usually my system doesn't use much resource max ram used 40% cpu almost always on idle. I'm listing top 5 processes below. I'm scared my system is hacked/compromised. Please give me some suggestion.

This package contains introspection data for VTE, a terminal emulator widget for GTK+.

are you sure its a hack?

did you change your root password? reboot? update cwp? update all kernels? change ssh port? update firewall for ssh port change? remove port 22 from firewall?

Is your server set to terminal only (local TTY/SSH) -- in other words, do you have the GUI disabled (as it should be for a server)?
Code: [Select]
systemctl set-default multi-user.target
