Faced such a problem, the field of buying VPS from hetsner, for reasons that are not clear to me, someone infinitely runs the standard console commands who , netstat and others. It would have remained unnoticed if they did not fully load the processor.

enter image description here

If I kill any process that loads the most

 kill -9 13213 

then netstat starts immediately, and so on. lsof shows:

enter image description here

Run:

 rkhunter -c -sk chkrootkit 

When trying to run:

 lsof -c 13213 

Issues nothing.

In /proc/{pid}/maps see this

/usr/bin/uspezmpywh - this file naturally constantly changes after the killing process. In him: enter image description here

Found nothing significant. In the system itself, if you look through who only one authorized user. Initially, many different people had access to the system, so anything could go there. With such a face the first time. I would be grateful for any hint.

UPD: To /proc/{pid}/status :

In /etc/init nothing could be found in /etc/init.d/{name_proc} :
