KBRA downgrades the ratings of six classes of certificates and affirms all other outstanding ratings of CSAIL 2017-CX10, a $656.9 million CMBS conduit transaction. The rating actions follow a surveillance review of the transaction, which has exhibited an increase in KBRA's estimated losses from four K-LOCs (19.5% of the pool balance), each of which is secured by office properties. The ratings also consider increased certificate C/E levels due to amortization and loan payoffs, as well as deleveraging due to defeasances.

As of the September 2025 remittance period, there are three specially serviced loans (14.9%), each of which is in foreclosure. KBRA has identified six K-LOCs (28.1%), including the specially serviced assets, four of which (19.5%) have estimated losses. The K-LOCs are depicted in the table below.
