[ubuntu-hardened] Input on nsscache from a security perspective

[Mathias Gug]

Hi,

I'd like to get the input of the security team on the nsscache project.
nsscache is a Python library and a command line frontend to that library
that synchronises a local NSS cache against a remote directory service,
such as LDAP.

Are there any problems or concerns with the overall idea and
architecture? Is privacy an issue (ie having a copy of all uids/gids on a
workstation)?
