GHSA-rw5m-g76h-ww34 PUBLISHED

Record from GitHub Advisory Database · Published May 1, 2022

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.
