Allowed Virus to be inserted in header

I’ve used wordpress since the early days (15+ years). When updating my site over the summer 2 plugins were suggested to be installed. This one and another.
Several employees told me they were getting a virus when visiting the site. Upon checking the plugin settings a code snippet was added in August without my ok that was loading a virus in the header.
I deleted this plugin and all is well again. I wish I could remember which plugin suggested these 2, part of the blame lies there.

Update 2024: this plugin is still being installed somehow and inserting code.
