RE: What is "/etc/-src" ?
Check for open connections, do netstat -nl and check for open files try lsof
And grep to that file
lsof|grep -src|more
Del if if you want to, and jq is right check your logs for possible hackers.
Thanks,

In my point of view, there should be only configure files under /etc, all
are readable with any editor. You can use 'file' to check out what format it
is. From what you show, it seems not an executable one. If you concern about
safety, you need to check out your log files under /var/log.
