A secure string, containing a cryptographic key, that has the same contents as a non-secure string, is broken no matter if it is a single or multiuser system. A cryptographic key that can so easilly be recreated by another user is broken. Either the random number generator, or the user chosing a pass phrase, created a far too weak key.
