Nothing in the repository called omarchy-sudo-reset, and its one line interpolated an environment-supplied $USER into a string handed to a root shell: `su -c "faillock --reset --user $USER"`. $USER is an environment variable rather than a kernel-supplied identity, so whatever set it before the command ran chose the rest of what root's shell executed. That is not a way past PAM on its own — su still has to authenticate — but the installer sets root's password to the user's own, so the prompt this raises is one the user answers by habit. It bought little for that. Omarchy sets `deny=10 unlock_time=120` in /etc/pam.d/system-auth and in the lock screen's PAM stack, so a lockout takes ten wrong passwords to reach and clears itself two minutes later, and the manual documents the root-TTY reset for anyone who would rather not wait.
