Thanks for the detailed analysis.

I have uploaded a package for testing with the minimal fix in the
following PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~mdeslaur/+archive/ubuntu/testing

Once it's finished building, could someone please check if the package
resolves their issue? If so, I'll upload it to proposed as an SRU.

Thanks!

Title:
  segv in sudo_getgrgid

Status in sudo:
  Unknown
Status in sudo package in Ubuntu:

Status in sudo source package in Xenial:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If the user is in a group with no name (because libnss-db got removed
  and the group was defined there, for example...) then:

  the call to sudo_debug_printf in sudo_getgrgid
  (plugins/sudoers/pwutil.c, line 462) causes a SEGV when trying to get
  item->d.gr->gr_name (since item->d.gr is NULL).
