Hi,
a CVE was released for this package.
CVE-2007-4135[0]:
Unspecified vulnerability in the NFSv4 ID mapper (nfsidmap) 
on SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 has unspecified attack vectors 
and impact, involving the name to uid translation in NFSv4 
name lookups.

Please include the CVE id in the changelog if you fix this 
bug.

The CVE doesn't give much information, however I found the 
fixed source package from SuSE which includes 
libnfsidmap-0.12-nouser.patch which should fix this.

You can get it on:
http://ftp.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.1/inst-source/suse/src/nfsidmap-0.12-16.src.rpm
and then extract it by doing rmp2cpio nfsidmap-0.12-16.src.rpm | cpio --extract

Kind regards
Nico
