During the {{USS|Thunder|A}}'s encounter with the '''Dawn's Light''' the ship's systems were found overridden with a small device attached to the engineering console and another attached to the environmental systems.  While the devices were quickly disabled, the ease at which the security of the freighter had been overcome lead the engineering staff to believe that something had gone seriously wrong with the VMS and an analysis was ordered on the devices.

During the subsequent analysis it was determined a crew member, acting under external influences, had constructed the devices from spare parts readily available on aboard the freighter.  The device found attached to the engineering console was created using a standard secondary console processor (type URT-576A) and a consumer grade holo-imager.  The amount of effort required to produce the device was small, especially considering the crewman in question did so under the influence of outside primitive forces<ref>For a complete record of the encounter, request mission logs [[Be_My_Friend_(Embassy_of_Duronis_II)|from Starfleet]]</ref>

Upon analysis the key to the exploit turned out to be the memory buffer from the holo-imager.  Originally thought to be used to record a primitive message (contact Starfleet records and request Oddas-Aria-Feline-Screetch-Alpha for a copy), the buffer was later determined to be used as a way to record, playback, and insert the memory engrams into the memory stream of the VMS.
