Tester reports local Qwen model produced commercial-license bypass

A tester reported that Qwen 3.8 27B analyzed a commercial application locally and produced a working licence-check bypass in about 30 minutes. The account says the model conducted static analysis, reconstructed cryptographic material, corrected an initial error and ultimately demonstrated the bypass on a legitimately purchased copy. The test ran on a Lenovo ThinkStation PGX with 128 GB of unified memory. The report concerns one unnamed application and one run, so it does not establish performance across other software targets.
