Comment ...except it also works remotely for FileVault (Score 1) 237
so it's not exactly "far from a remote hole or a disk decryption technique" as the post suggests. If Screen Sharing is turned on, it allows remote login; if you have access physically or via Screen Sharing, you can use it to turn off FileVault. So it's potentially both a remote hole AND a disk decryption technique. "sudo passwd -u root" now if you hadn't already reset the root passsword!
