Hello,

I have a problem with my Linode (details below) on which I run one Rails app (with mongodb).

I have getty process which takes 100% CPU.

top
Code:
PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S  %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND                                                                                          
31509 root      20   0 12800 1916 1756 R  98.8  0.1  17:01.87 getty 


When I kill it, it appears again.

When I run
Code:
strace -f -p PID
then I get loop of
Code:
read(0, "", 1)                          = 0
read(0, "", 1)                          = 0
read(0, "", 1)                          = 0
read(0, "", 1)                          = 0



I've checked my logs if Linode was compromised but in logs is only me as root or deployer.

Any ideas what it could be, how to solve it?
Thank you in advance!
