"/usr/bin/nvidia/update" use all gpu and i can not kill it

Today, while preparing for my experiment, I found an nvidia program that uses all of my Gpus.

I have never seen this program “update”, is the driver in the automatic update?

I tried to kill and reboot my pc, but it didn’t work.

I need some help.

This “update” is a non-existent process, it’s a mining program, and my pc has been hacked.

To find out the cause and solve.

I am sorry to hear that!

We cannot give advice on how to resolve this situation, you should consult proper sources on Virus detection and removal. If in doubt better do a clean re-install of your system, making sure there are no traces of the trojan left in either BIOS or on your disks.

Thanks for your reply.

Maybe I made a mistake in my formulation. What I meant was that I had solved the problem myself. I reinstalled my system.

So the post can be set to “resolved” or “closed” or something like that.
