Cybersecurity of COSPAS-SARSAT and EPIRB: threat and attacker models, exploits, future research. (arXiv:2302.08361v1 [cs.CR])

COSPAS-SARSAT is an International programme for "Search and Rescue" (SAR)
missions based on the "Satellite Aided Tracking" system (SARSAT). It is
designed to provide accurate, timely, and reliable distress alert and location
data to help SAR authorities of participating countries to assist persons and
vessels in distress. Two types of satellite constellations serve COSPAS-SARSAT,
low earth orbit search and rescue (LEOSAR) and geostationary orbiting search
and rescue (GEOSAR). Despite its nearly-global deployment and critical
importance, unfortunately enough, we found that …
