CWEhttps://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/NVD-Other.html

The NFSv4 ID mapper (nfsidmap) before 0.17 does not properly handle return values from the getpwnam_r function when performing a username lookup, which can cause it to report a file as being owned by root instead of nobody if the file exists on the server but not on the client.
