The documentation for that specific module even calls it out as "painfully hard-coded biquad filter code", YMMV. I'd guess those files aren't what the author actually edits - there are commits that suggest that they are

"Cracked" in the exact same sense that changing a URL from /accounts/1234 to /accounts/1235 is "cracking" website security: if it works, you didn't have anything but make-believe security before.
