I remember an issue that it's security model involved trusting the client. If you exported a file system to a PC, somebody could reboot the PC with Linux to get root and ignore the user permissions.

I believe this can be fixed with kerberos, but in practice very few people probably deploy it that way.

They can get every user except root (assuming that root squash is in place).

NFSv3 and below trusts any uid/gids presented by the client unless they are squashed.
