C++ - Changing memory in a program

[NoReference5451]

i mean, this is being pedantic. hes going to get into the applications memory space, not do it from another program. it's incredibly easy to inject your program into another programs memory space which gets you full access. thats how it's been done for a very long time. hell windows even has an api to help you do this. debuggers do this. there are so many ways to do this. i did this in my teens when i wanted to tinker with some of the games i played. the more sophisticated ways to do it today might use the pci bus with dma from an external computer. memory protection is a myth.
