Rooting Around

Seems to be from a reputable source:

"Wow, this is a bad one. On Macs running the latest version of High Sierra — 10.13.1 (17B48) — it appears that anyone can log in just by putting “root” in the user name field. This is a huge, huge problem. Apple will fix it probably within hours, but holy moly. Do not leave your Mac unattended until this is resolved."

Can this be true?
Boy, that's a flaw.
I stand in awe.
It's probably still against the law
To do
Unless the computer belongs to you.
