I spent a lot of time last year researching packet radio software for vulnerabilities. I found a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in WinAPRS that let me hack into a system over the air. The result is a reverse shell obtained over ham radio where the victim machine doesn't have to be connected to Ethernet at all, as long as they are running a WinAPRS station. Is it practical? Not really. But it was fun and I learned a lot. I always wondered if I could get RCE via ham radio through memory corruption and it feels good to have proved to myself that I can do it.
