FYI, that format looks a bit like a SASL "external" account, e.g.

    root@slime:~# ldapsearch -LLLYEXTERNAL dn=canthappen
    SASL/EXTERNAL authentication started
    SASL username: gidNumber=0+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth
    SASL SSF: 0

    root@slime:~# sudo -u nobody ldapsearch -LLLYEXTERNAL dn=canthappen
    SASL/EXTERNAL authentication started
    SASL username: 
gidNumber=65534+uidNumber=65534,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth
    SASL SSF: 0

    root@slime:~# getent passwd root nobody
    root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
    nobody:x:65534:65534:nobody:/nonexistent:/usr/sbin/nologin
