No hacking involved. Lightning payments are locked to a secret (preimage) so if you know the secret then you can get the funds. This tool allows you to redeem payments by checking your storage to see if your nodes know that secret. A few cases like double payments and wormholes exist that this can be leveraged against to unlock funds that nodes normally don't act on.
