What happened
This arXiv CS/NI feed contains multiple recent research papers with several practical and dual‑use security implications. Key items: (1) StarLoc demonstrates passive 3D geolocation of LEO transmitters using only three antennas in a 2D plane by exploiting orbital motion (reported 3D angle accuracy ≈0.7° and range error ≈5 km); implementation and dataset (Starlink test data, 81 satellites) are publicly released. (2) GateScope presents a black‑box measurement framework that finds frequent misbehaviors in commercial LLM API gateways (silent model substitutions, degraded multi‑turn memory, billing/
