You can get undetectble remote access on most machines given "physical access once", so I don't think this qualifies as "remotely exploitable".

While it's unlikely, there are probably plenty of users who have done this for some reason or another. Don't underestimate a user's ability to blindly do things like this by following arcane instructions in attempts to fix an unrelated problem.
