Many years ago I came across this newsgroup discussion entitled Virus infected GPS firmware. Is it possible?

At the time it was safe to say "no" - wile it was possible to upload duff firmware to a GPS or even upload a "tweaked" firmware revision that had side-effects, there was no way for it to spread from one receiver to another. However, things are changing - more and more devices have a wireless interface such as Bluetooth which makes such an exploit theoretically possible.

The terrible security of wireless technologies such as Bluetooth and WEP for WiFi have dramatically undermined the faith that many have in wireless, and with good cause - there have been a number of high profile hacks on Bluetooth including the one of Paris Hilton's Sidekick II. Even Bruce Schneier, world renowned cryptography expert blogged about a possible Bluetooth virus compromising Lexus cars.

Just a matter of time, then ...
