  • Engineer — Act: Zimbra Collaboration Suite is common enterprise mail infrastructure; active exploitation confirmed by a national CERT means patch immediately — update ZCS to the vendor’s latest patched release and audit web-accessible Zimbra instances for signs of prior compromise.
  • SOC/IR — Act: Active exploitation of a Zimbra RCE means assume-breach posture for orgs running it — sweep Zimbra servers for web shells, anomalous child processes from the mail service, and unusual outbound connections; pull CERT Polska’s advisory for any published IOCs to run against SIEM.
  • Leader — Act: Zimbra hosts enterprise email, so a critical RCE under active attack is a data-exposure risk — confirm whether Zimbra is in your environment, and if so direct teams to treat patching as priority-one this week and assess whether any compromise warrants customer or regulatory notification.
