    Hello Folks,

    Just wanted your opinion.

    Say I am pen-testing an application...It requires authentication credentials
    to run. Also, the software has a demo mode & full version mode.

    Now using RE (Reverse engineering), I can change the ASM & create a small
    patch file to bypass the auth & convert the demo mode to full version mode.

    Is this a security problem?? What should be my recommendation??

    This is assuming that I work for a pen test firm & the company wants us to
    test their product. So I should not be affected by DMCA?? Am i right??

    Thanks in advance
    -N
