Hello,

Good day, I would just like to ask assistance to have proper guidance on how will i proceed with this. I have no extensive experience in zimbra administration and yes, attacks like these.

Though reading the forums i was able to follow some inputs and so far i have applied some security measures. What we have is the other version of zmcat which is zmwatch on a zimbra server version below

Release 8.5.1_GA_3056.RHEL6_64_20141103151539 RHEL6_64 FOSS edition

so far, what i was able to do was to block all consolidated IP on our firewall from this forum and execute commands below

#chown root:root /opt/zimbra/log/zmswatch*
#chmod 400 /opt/zimbra/log/zmswatch*
#pkill zmswatch
#chmod 0775 /opt/zimbra/data/tmp/upload

#/opt/zimbra/libexec/zmfixperms

chattr -i /var/spool/cron/crontabs/zimbra

% sudo chattr +i /var/spool/cron/zimbra
% /bin/rm -f /opt/zimbra/log/zmswatch
% touch /opt/zimbra/log/zmswatch
% sudo chattr +i /opt/zimbra/log/zmswatch

What i would like to ask is that, with all the guides and solutions here, i cannot seem to verify where will i start. Can you guys guide me or put a list on what to do steps by steps.

Also, I cant seem to find a patch for my version. do i need to upgrade on a newer version and if i did, how will it affect my data?

will appropriate all the response

thank you
