MacOS High Sierra. Anyone can login as "root" with empty password

Hello,

The mentioned news is _NOT_ OpenBSD related. It just got something in my mind to ask:


The question: Would it be a good thing to MANDATORY disable any passwordless login?

OpenBSD would probably never have similar issue, but maybe it would be a good mitigation?


Thanks.
