Dishing Out DoS: How to Disable and Secure the Starlink User Terminal. (arXiv:2303.00582v1 [cs.CR])
cs.CR updates on arXiv.org arxiv.org
Satellite user terminals are a promising target for adversaries seeking to
target satellite communication networks. Despite this, many protections
commonly found in terrestrial routers are not present in some user terminals.
As a case study we audit the attack surface presented by the Starlink
router's admin interface, using fuzzing to uncover a denial of service attack
on the Starlink user terminal. We explore the attack's impact, particularly in
the cases of drive-by attackers, and attackers that are able to maintain …
