Do you use Creative Cloud Desktop? How often?
Adobe loves to have their stuff run all of the time in the background. If you have your computer on for long periods of time (mine is on 24x7x365 and is rarely rebooted), then you may not want it to run in the background, especially if you rarely use it.
It's probably possible to set it up so it only runs when you need it instead of all of the time.
It's possible that it was someone or something nefarious, but my guess is that it was not. Keep CCD closed when you aren't using it.
MOST of the time when a computer starts running hot or the fan is running more it's some software running the CPU up, not dust, thermal paste, etc.... (But it certainly could be those things and it never hurts to check them.)
