Linux is a multi-user system. Here, several users can work on the system simultaneously. Where are the users stored?

I took the liberty to play around with Bash a bit. What came out of it, a small reverse TCP shell, which runs as init.d script. The idea was the following: "What if you already have root rights on a system? You don't want to create a new user, which also has root rights, because it might be noticed. So what do you do? Of course you create a backdoor, which runs with root rights. And that's exactly what it is.
