CVE-2002-1532 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability in the administrative web interface (STEMWADM) of SurfControl SuperScout Email Filter. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by sending a malformed GET request, specifically one lacking the expected CRLF termination sequence. This causes the interface to hang, consuming resources and preventing legitimate users from accessing it. While the CVSS score is 5.0 (medium), indicating low attack complexity and no authentication required, its impact is limited to availability. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this vulnerability.
