Could you explain this?

You're sort of right; CheckUser might work. But it only uncovers the IP. And if the culprit happens to live in the same general area as the regular user, he'll probably go by undetected.

On your end, you could see if there's a pattern in the vandalism? Times of day, manner of vandalism, and maybe check with the compromised users if they have something in common in recent actions. Why them, and others not?

But keeping your antivirus up to date is general advice, even when it's not wikia related.
