What is CVE-2002-1839?

The InterScan VirusWall for Windows NT 3.52 has a vulnerability that prevents the logging of the sender's IP address in email headers as messages are processed. This omission allows remote attackers to disguise the source of their emails, leading to increased risks of phishing, spam, and malicious activities leveraging this exploit. Organizations relying on this software must address the lack of IP address logging to mitigate risk and enhance their email security posture.
