TL;DR - This method requires knowing a users steam login
and only locks them out of their accountedit: Here is a video of someone "hacking" themselves. Looks like someone left some debug code on the password reset that bypassed the need for a verification code.

Might want to try that again, yes it requires the login name but it gives them full access. The lock out for 5 days if Valve's response to try and limit damage probably also while they sort out any traded items and see if any vac bans are going to come through.

It gives them full access only if you do not have Steam Guard enabled. With Steam Guard enabled they would also need access to your email because you still need a code when signing in from a new device.
