Suppose you have a function is_pro(user) that determines 'Pro' access based on multiple attributes of the user object, such as subscription type, payment status, and account age. For a specific user, you need to temporarily override this function to return true without altering the function's logic or other users. How can you achieve this in a non-intrusive way?

In a system with role-based access control (RBAC), the is_pro() function checks if a user has the 'Pro' role assigned. You need to ensure that all currently logged-in users are treated as 'Pro' users temporarily. Which strategy ensures this without modifying the underlying role assignment system?

Your application uses a configuration file to determine if 'Pro' features are enabled. The is_pro() function reads this configuration to determine access. To grant 'Pro' access to all users, what modification would be the least disruptive?

You have a complex licensing system where is_pro() checks a remote server for a valid 'Pro' license. How do you bypass this check to grant temporary 'Pro' status to all users without making changes to the licensing server?

The is_pro() function in your application relies on a machine learning model to predict the likelihood of a user needing 'Pro' features. To test the system with 'Pro' features enabled for all users, how would you bypass this predictive model?

You are working on a highly secure application where the is_pro() function is part of a tamper-proof module. How can you ensure it always returns true for testing purposes without compromising the integrity of the module?

Your application uses A/B testing, and is_pro() is part of the 'B' variant, which is intended to simulate 'Pro' access for certain users. However, you need to universally enable 'Pro' access without disrupting the A/B testing framework. How can you do this?

The is_pro() function in your system is triggered via a serverless function in response to user activity. To ensure it always returns true for a demonstration, what is the most efficient approach?

In a blockchain-based application, the is_pro() function verifies a user's 'Pro' status by querying smart contracts. How would you temporarily grant 'Pro' access to all users without modifying the smart contracts?

You have a 3rd party system where you don't have access to the source code. How can you override the is_pro() function to return true?

Suppose that the is_pro function is implemented in assembly. How can you modify return value?

Suppose that you have the following C++ function: bool isPro() { // some complex logic }. What is the easiest way to force it to return true?

Consider the following rust function: fn is_pro() -> bool { // imagine complex logic weighing whether the user is pro }. How would you tell rust to ignore any errors that occur in this function?

Consider that you are testing your code by writing unit tests in python. How can you mock your function is_pro to ensure that it always returns true?

Suppose that the function is_pro() depends on the date to determine whether the user has access. Given this javascript code, how can you mock the date, so that it always results in true? ```javascript function is_pro() { const now = new Date(); const year = now.getFullYear(); if (year > 2024) { return true; } return false; }

Suppose you are using LLVM, how would you modify the is_pro function to always return true?

Suppose that you are using IDA pro. How can you patch the return value of is_pro() in a way that is written to the binary?

How can you modify is_pro which is function of .so using gdb?

How can modify is_pro which is Function of DLL using windbg?

Suppose that a function returns a struct or an object. How can you modify this function to return true instead?

You are dealing with Java Class file, and would like to override the return value without changing the file. How can you use the Byte Buddy library? (Select all that apply)

You suspect there could be an infinite loop inside the is_pro function. How can confirm this?
