3DescriptionCVE.org
A Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) vulnerability was identified in the mail template functionality of the Axway SecureTransport product in version 5.5-20260326. This flaw allows an attacker with admin privileges to inject arbitrary Java code expressions, which are executed server-side when the template is rendered (i.e., during email sending). Successful exploitation of this flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the server that results in full host compromise.
This issue affects all Axway SecureTransport versions prior 5.5-20260528 update.

AnalysisAI
Authenticated remote code execution in Axway SecureTransport (all versions prior to 5.5-20260528, confirmed present in 5.5-20260326) allows an administrator to inject Java expressions into mail templates that are evaluated server-side when emails are rendered and sent, resulting in full host compromise. The flaw is a Server-Side Template Injection (CWE-1336) reported by Toreon and fixed by Axway; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though a technical write-up and vendor advisory exist. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated account with administrator privileges on Axway SecureTransport (CVSS PR:H) and access to the mail/notification template editing functionality - the injected Java expression only executes when a template is rendered during email sending, so the attacker must be able to save a template and trigger (or wait for) an email event that renders it. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Signals are largely consistent and point to a genuine but privilege-gated risk. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A malicious or compromised SecureTransport administrator edits a mail notification template and embeds a crafted Java expression payload; when the server renders that template to send a notification email, the JVM evaluates the expression and executes attacker-chosen code. This yields command execution on the underlying host and full compromise of the MFT gateway, enabling theft of transferred files, credentials, and lateral movement. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: upgrade Axway SecureTransport to the 5.5-20260528 update or later, per the vendor advisory at https://support.axway.com/news/4882/lang/en, which is the definitive fix. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Immediate actions (24 hours): Identify all Axway SecureTransport instances and document their current versions, audit and document all users with administrative access, enable enhanced logging for mail template modifications and administrative actions, and restrict admin access to essential personnel only. …
