CVE-2025-54309: CrushFTP AS2 Auth Bypass to Unauthenticated RCE
A full breakdown of CVE-2025-54309 — the CrushFTP zero-day exploited in the wild in July 2025. A logic flaw in loginCheckHeaderAuth() lets a crafted AS2-To header skip authentication entirely, after which an attacker creates an admin account, remaps the Virtual File System to the OS root, drops a malicious Java plugin and reaches remote command execution. Root cause, the bypass-to-RCE kill chain, detection IOCs and remediation.
