@thepacketrat your article implies identity theft. No password reset required. Superadmin 'root' can just switch to ANY system user.
@thepacketrat re: snowden if you're a sysadmin with superuser privileges, just switch to whatever system user you want. No re-auth needed.

@thepacketrat so if was sysadmin of just one unhardened ldap server he could probably easily auth as any of those users. Single-sign-on ftw! -
@inthecloud247 I'm sure it's even worse than it appears.

@inthecloud247 That's not how credentials on DOD / NSA systems (are supposed to) work. -
@thepacketrat I think Snowden wasn't a regular sysadmin, was some type of superadmin. At that access level all controls can be bypassed.
