i suggest you pass on any details you have to punkbuster. these hacks - and that's precisely what they are - were supposedly defeated by PB long ago. in fact, many servers no longer check for cheat-protected cvars because we were assured by PB that there was no longer any need, since the unlockers were not a problem any more.
if this is no longer true, they need to be alerted ASAP.
btw, PB kicks for certain cheat-protected cvars, like cg_thirdperson, by default. but not for arguably the most damaging one, and the one most cvar-unlocker-punks would be wanting to use, r_shownormals.
a wallhack is a wallhack is a wallhack, whether it's a game hook, wrapper, or developer's tool.
