Solved High CPU usage

[Biid00x]

Hello there, today I've created a 3CX for a new customer, but for some reason the CPU usage i s always at 100% (even if I upgrade it).
This are the process:

Even if I kill another process wil do the same thing. It can be bash, the commande top ...
I didn't install anything on this dedicated server.
There is nothing in /var/lib/3cxpbx/ as a "core" or "minidump" file
Thanks in advance for your help!


Server OS: Debian 10
3CX Version: 18.0 V3 Build 450
Is the 3CX Server Hosted and where? Hosted by myself

That is quite odd, especially since the command seems to be 'echo "find"'. Have you tried rebooting the machine, does it stay the same?

Also, how did you deploy this instance, was with the 3CX ISO? Is this a new instance or has it been up for a while?

I did do a quick search and found some information online hinting that this may actually be malware. I of course don't have enough info to confirm or deny this at the moment, but if this instance is generally unsecure (SSH can be accessed from outside, etc) then it might not be a bad idea to just take a backup, scrap the whole machine and redeploy just to be safe.

Yeah I've seen it was a malware... I just deleted the VM thanks for your help
