Why not test it out on test server?
Before setting a password, check how you can shutdown the listener from a remote server.

Just create a listener.ora on the remote server with the host set to the local box.

eg.

Local box -> legitimate listener.ora

Remote box -> copy of listener.ora from local box

remote> lsnrctl
lsnr> stop

You have now stopped the remote listener, which is probably not a good thing.

Play with the connectivity after setting the password and make sure you are comfortable with how everything works.
